Special consideration must be given to route planning to avoid the Canyon Creek Bay and the vicinity of Canyon Creek Hills, which have infrastructure limitations or heavy pedestrian traffic that may impede oversized loads.

Certain neighborhoods, such as Canyon Creek Center and areas around Canyon Creek Tech Hub, have restricted access for oversize loads. Alternative routes should be planned in advance to avoid these areas.
