Excess mass and dimension conditions
Conditions of operations
Vehicles operating under excess mass and/or excess dimension guidelines or permits can potentially damage the road infrastructure and effect the safety of other road users.
To reduce the risks associated with the use of these vehicles, conditions of operation may be imposed on their operation.
General conditions of operation are included in the excess mass and excess dimension guidelines and conditions of operation for specific operations areissued with excess mass permits and Letters of No Objection (LONO).
Warning: it is the operator's responsibility to ensure compliance with current conditions of operation.
To assist operators meet the responsibilities a Conditions of Operation Database for the state-controlled road network has been developed for public use.
Note: due to the recent regional government amalgamations, Main Roads is currently transitioning from a district to a regional based structure that is consistent with the new local government boundaries. Until this transition is complete, the Conditions of Operation database will refer to the older
district boundaries maps.
Through this database operators may enquire on:
- Conditions for a particular excess mass permit/LONO
- Qld wide conditions of operation applicable between two selected dates
- Qld wide conditions have changed since a selected date
- All conditions recorded in database.
