Road damage done by heavy vehicles during winter and spring thawing periods is a problem that affects all northern states. Unless a roadway has been designed and constructed for heavy vehicle loads year-round (aka all-weather road), a significant loss of strength occurs during a seasonal thaw period. The damage to a road is directly related to the amount and frequency of the loading applied.

State law mandates the institution of weight restrictions from March 1st to May 1st of every year, but the statute also allows the Michigan Department of Transportation and the county road commissions to implement those restrictions earlier or suspend reduced loading, depending on weather and road conditions. Historically, the Livingston County Road Commission has implemented the Springtime Weight Restrictions the last week of February.
