Public Notice

Bridge Load Posting Reduction - 20 Ton Bridge Load Posting - (B17-951 CTH BB/Tainter Lake)

This notice is to inform the public that effective immediately, the gross vehicle weight limit for bridge structure B17-951 located on CTH BB/Tainter Lake in Cedar Falls, Dunn County has been reduced to 20 tons.

The bridge is located on CTH BB/Tainter Lake, approximately 1.75 miles East of STH 25 in Cedar Falls, Dunn County.

A recent inspection was performed on bridge structure B17-951 and concluded that certain steel members of the bridge have deteriorated to a point that warrants the implementation of a 20 ton gross vehicle weight load posting of this structure.  

All loads greater than 20 tons must use an alternate route and are restricted from crossing the posted bridge.  Disregarding the load posting is subject to fines and could compromise the structural integrity of the bridge.
