Did you know?

Saskatchewan's total road surface would circle the Equator four times (the Equator has a circumference of 40,000 km)

Saskatchewan Highways and Infrastructure has established allowable weights for all highways within the province. Maximum gross vehicle weight is dependant on highway classification, maximum registered gross vehicle weight for vehicles, tire size and axle spacing. In order to maximize the economic movement of goods and minimize the damage to road structures, Saskatchewan Highways and Infrastructure assigns special weights to some of our highways. In some cases certain highways are assigned higher allowable weights and in other cases, weights are reduced.
