Cobourg, ON (February 24, 2026) – Commercial vehicles will be restricted to half-loads on designated streets within the Town of Cobourg starting on Monday, March 2, 2026.

 Half‑load restrictions will be enforced and signed at the following locations: 

  • Danforth Road – starting 1km East of Parkview Hills to Jarvis Road
  • Jarvis Road – Danforth Road to Elgin Street East
  • Stanton Road – south of Elgin Street East to dead end
  • Elgin Street East – Jarvis Road to Brook Road North
  • Workman Road – County Road 2 to Elgin Street East
  • Greer Road – Elgin Street East to Danforth Road

Half-load restrictions will remain in place until the half‑load signs are removed in mid- to late April, weather dependent. Please contact the Roads department with any questions, by calling 905-372-9971.
