The Mid-Bay Bridge is currently restricted to only two-axle vehicles and single axle trailers. This load restriction is a cautionary measure intended to minimize the stresses on the bridge during maintenance activities.

All planned construction activities are weather dependent and may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather. For more information visit the Florida Department of Transportation District Three on the web at www.nwflroads.com.
