In general, any vehicle over 10 feet in width, 14 feet in height, and within the Class 3 weight classification should obtain an oversize load permit from the Shelton Public Works Department. For example, oversized loads related to the ongoing Highway 66 construction project must comply with special route restrictions.
Additional specific requirement paragraph: Oversized loads hauling heavy equipment for the local manufacturing sector may need to provide proof of insurance and a detailed route plan.
According to Nebraska State Statute, all oversized loads over 12 feet in width or 16 feet in height require an escort vehicle when traveling through Shelton during peak traffic hours (7 am-9 am and 3 pm-5 pm). This includes vehicles carrying heavy construction equipment or large machinery.
For oversize loads exceeding 10,000 pounds, local police require a minimum of two escort vehicles for safety and to ensure compliance with city regulations. Scheduling requirements: at least 24 hours' notice is needed for the Shelton Police Department to provide an escort vehicle.
To apply for an oversize load permit in Shelton, companies can visit the City's website (sheltonne.gov) or contact the Public Works Department directly at (402) 829-2233. Applicants must provide proof of insurance and a detailed route plan.
All applications require documentation of load dimensions, weight, and any special requirements for escort vehicles or traffic control measures.
Time-of-day restrictions: Oversized loads are prohibited on city streets during rush hour (7 am-9 am and 3 pm-5 pm) to minimize disruptions to local traffic.
Seasonal restriction: The Shelton Public Works Department may impose temporary route restrictions during severe weather conditions or large events, such as the annual Shelton County Fair.
The standard permit fee for Shelton is $100, with an additional $50 fee for each hour of escort vehicle service required. Fees may vary based on load size, weight, or distance.
Route complexity fees: Oversized loads requiring special traffic control measures or lane closures will incur additional fees starting at $200 per day.
