Was informed today that IL is going to be changing their OS/OD permit system next week. The permits will now require axle spacings, and all loads will now be routed. Currently, anything under 12' wide was self-routing. But now Il will be routing ALL loads..... just a heads up to everyone. they will also be changing their Provision sheets, so you'll need to get those changed out too. And the system change will go into effect next Friday, at which time they will also not issue permits, so if you are going to need them, order them Thursday at the latest since they will be closed down on Friday

Guess doing O/S ltl just became a bit more difficult in IL.
SHC Thanks this. -
They have almost always routed me, but I am almost always overheight when I go thru there.
SHC Thanks this. -
I'm wondering if they'll leave the oversize agriculture loads exemption for Sundays.
-
guess it would made too much sense to do the changeover today or monday since its mlk day and all permit offices are closed anyways , im sitting in Virginia waiting for Pennsylvania to give me a permit for 14'5

So talking to a buddy the other day and he got one of the "new" il permits and the speeds on them are ridiculous. Posted minimum speed limit not to exceed 5 mph over it where its posted. Where not posted fastest speed is 35 mph. Total and complete crap.
-
It's been that way for weight lds. for a long time..
Try doing 35 down the interstate, you get run over...
Then some bridges you have to center line and crawl speed. Kinda like Ia.. 5 mph over bridges on 2 lane roads...
Pain in the arse -
Yeah i just think its crap they are doing it for all permitted loads now.
