Or. Admin. Code § 734-070-0010 - Imposition of Travel Restrictions
(1) The Chief Engineer and the Administrator
of the Commerce and Compliance Division are both authorized to impose time of
travel restrictions, to halt the movement of over-dimensional vehicles and
loads, or to impose other restrictions which alter, rescind, or are in addition
to those established under other rules and pertain to the movement of
over-dimensional vehicles, combinations of vehicles, or loads on state
highways. In exercising such authority, the Chief Engineer or the Administrator
of the Commerce and Compliance Division may impose such restrictions as may be
necessary to protect the safety and convenience of the traveling public, to
protect any highway or section thereof from damage, to avoid conflict with
highway construction or repair projects, or to cope with other local traffic
conditions.
(2) Any directive or
restriction imposed by the Chief Engineer or the Administrator of the Commerce
and Compliance Division under this authority will be in the form of a written,
signed order.
(3) Signs giving
notice of the restrictions or limitations contained in the order must be posted
at each end of the highway or section of highway affected. Such restrictions or
limitations will be effective when the signs giving notice of them are
posted.
