OAR 734-071-0015: Possible Reclassification of Highways Due to Improvements

Improvements may be made to some of the Group 2 and Group 3 highways indicated on Group Map 1, revised October 2023. Those improvements may make it appropriate to reclassify the highway or section of highway to a higher group rating which would allow vehicles or combinations of greater dimension. In this respect the Chief Engineer is authorized to reclassify the group rating of such highways when, in The Chief Engineer's judgment, such a reclassification would not diminish the safety afforded the traveling public. Such reclassification shall be made by a written order signed by the Chief Engineer. Group Map 1 is by reference made part of Division 71 rules and is available from the CCD Over-Dimension Permit Unit.
