Hwy 57 projects in Kasson are rescheduled to start April 24 due to spring weight load restrictions. The project was originally scheduled to start on April 17.
Spring weight load restrictions limit the amount of weight trucks can carry on certain roads during springtime when the ground is thawing and the roads could be damaged by heavier loads. Once conditions are determined to be improved, the load limits are removed.
