Please be advised that half load restrictions are now in effect for all Sagamok Anishnawbek roads until June 15, 2024.

Half load restrictions may be extended or reduced dependent upon weather and road conditions.

Some of Sagamok Anishnawbek’s roadways are susceptible to damage if exposed to heavy loads. These roads are subject to a seasonal reduced load limit during the "spring break up" period when the road base is at its weakest.

‍

Our seasonal Half-Load restrictions limit loads to five thousand kilograms (5,000 kg) per axle.

‍

Road signs advising of our seasonal half-load restrictions have now been installed along roadways in the Sagamok community.

‍

Thank you for helping keep our roadways safe for everyone to use.
