There is a stretch of OR-140 between Dairy, OR and Odessa, OR that doesn't have the STAA markings in the atlas. Has anyone driven it in a big truck?

Never been on it but there are stretches of 140 restricted to 65ft overall. I don’t have an OR permit anymore though so I can’t tell you the exact sections.

There's no probs, just go and have a fine ride.
If you're that worried, call the highway patrol.
They will be happy to answer your questions and then you will know for sure....Flat Earth Trucker, Team818 and tscottme Thank this. -
It use to have length restrictions after the left turn at Denio junction. When I was a newb, I took that route by accident, and got to what was probably the steepest grade I've ever seen with a few switchbacks. I drove the entire length in 4th or 5th gear going just a few miles per hour. Lose control off the shoulder, and it's several hundred feet down. There were some old cars at the bottom that they never bothered to recover. Not a good road to breakdown on.
