Highway Department

Burleigh County is experiencing hazardous road conditions across the region due to the snow event in late October and the recent freezing and thawing temperatures.  These conditions have created a situation in which the snow melt and recent moisture have saturated the gravel road beds and is causing severe rutting and dangerous driving conditions.

County forces are working on roadways that are accessible and will be addressing repairs as soon as conditions allow.

We advise limited travel on gravel roadways until conditions improve.  Thank you for your patience while we address these issues.

Due to extensive damage, Burleigh County is placing the following restrictions on County Highway 10 from the Bismarck City Limit (66th Street NE) to 158th Street NE:

1) Reducing the speed limit to 55 mph.

2) Reducing the Max Gross Vehicle Weight to 80,000 pounds with a 6 Ton Max Single Axle weight.

3) Eliminate all overload permits on this segment of roadway.

These restrictions will remain in place until further notice.
