    Greetings:

    Anybody ever take WA-129 from Lewiston, ID (Clarkston, WA) to OR-3 to I-84?

    Rand McNally Atlas latest edition lists WA-129 under Restricted Routes. For CMV drivers heading south, the options are limited. Please fill me in, I'm unloaded and debating taking this route.

    Thanks

    ID 95 SB also has a stretch not highlighted as CMV route from Grangeville to McCall, though it is not specifically listed as restricted. It's 6+ hours on that 2 lane SB to hit the Interstate. Running tonight, twisty 2 lanes all night long not my favorite.

    Thanks for heads up. In daytime probably be a go on 95. I'll backtrack on 12.

    US 95 Depends on your length. 48 foot trailer no problem. 53 requires a permit,and tandems slid forward. 129 is a nasty steep winding road. 93 is definitely quicker.

    Just head north back up 90 more miles but goes quicker than 12 to Missoula and alot less treacherous too.

    That's what I do when I get sent to Lewison.
