MoDOT Extends Overwidth Hauling Permit to Aid Hay Movement

Continued drought conditions through much of the state have prompted the Missouri Department of Transportation to extend the special overwidth hauling permit for hay at no cost through December 1. 

Loads must be of legal height, length and weight. 

Permits can be requested online using the MoDOT Carrier Express online service. 

Customers can write a comment on the application about the fee waiver or call in when submitting their application to have the agent waive the fee.

Before hauling, drivers must apply for the special overwidth permit for loads that exceed eight feet six inches in width and map their route to avoid work zones, bridges, and other areas with weight, narrow lane, or height restrictions. 

This information, with a unique bridge and height restriction view, is available on the MoDOT Traveler Information Map at modot.org.
