The Reeve of Hanover says when spring road restrictions take effect each year, it hampers some local businesses.

Stan Toews says that is why they have scheduled a meeting with the province to request changes along Provincial Roads 311 and 216. Historically, in spring these two roads have weight restrictions of 65 per cent of normal axle loads and Toews says they are asking for 90 per cent.

The Hanover delegation will meet with Deputy Minister of Infrastructure Lance Vigfusson August 11th.

Toews says hopefully he will tell them what increased weight restrictions might do to those highways.
