The Lake Panorama Association announced that the five-ton vehicle weight limit for LPA roads will begin Monday, March 9, noting that roadbeds are soft and incapable of holding heavy loads. The five-ton weight limit will continue until the LPA determines that roadbeds are dry enough to support heavy loads.
The LPA states that the cost for seal-coat expense is more than $48,000 per mile.
UPS and FedEx have previously reviewed their compliance strategies with the LPA and have been utilizing acceptable vehicles for several years. Although these vehicles have a high profile, the LPA has determined them to be acceptable from a weight perspective. LPA members receiving routine deliveries from UPS and FedEx do not need to make special arrangements.
The LPA has also notified Panorama Schools and asks parents to contact the school with any questions regarding pick-up and drop-off locations.
