All oversize loads entering the City of Kaysville, Davis County, must conform to the requirements set by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) and the Kaysville Public Works Department.

In general, any vehicle exceeding 8 feet 6 inches in width, 14 feet in height, or 80,000 pounds gross vehicle weight should obtain an oversize load permit from the Kaysville Public Works Department.

Specifically, loads traversing Main Street or accessing industrial areas near the I-15 corridor should pay close attention to posted weight limits on bridges and overpasses. Contact the Kaysville Public Works Department for bridge clearance information.

Escort vehicles are typically required in Kaysville when the load exceeds 12 feet in width, 15 feet in height, or extends more than 10 feet beyond the front or rear of the transporting vehicle. Specific requirements depend on the route and time of day.

Local police escorts may be required for extremely large or heavy loads, particularly those navigating residential areas or requiring temporary road closures. Contact the Kaysville Police Department at (801) 546-1235 for police escort availability and associated fees, which are generally billed hourly.

To apply for an oversize load permit in Kaysville, contact the Kaysville Public Works Department directly. You can find contact information and download permit applications on the Kaysville City website under the 'Public Works' section. Alternatively, call them at (801) 546-1235.

Required documentation typically includes a detailed description of the load, dimensions, weight, vehicle information, proposed route through Kaysville (including street names), and proof of insurance. A route survey may be requested for particularly complex or heavy loads.

Time-of-day restrictions may apply to oversize loads traveling through Kaysville, particularly during peak commute hours (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM). These restrictions are more strictly enforced near schools and residential areas.

Seasonal restrictions may be implemented during winter months due to snow and ice conditions. Check with the Kaysville Public Works Department for updates during periods of inclement weather.

Certain residential streets and neighborhoods, especially those with narrow roadways or low-hanging utility lines, may be restricted. The Public Works Department can provide specific route restrictions based on your load dimensions. Avoid using Angel Street and Flint Street due to narrow roads and tight turns.

The base permit fee for an oversize load in Kaysville is typically $25.00. Additional fees may apply based on the size and weight of the load, the complexity of the route, and the need for escorts or road closures.

Fees can increase significantly for loads requiring multiple days of travel or impacting sensitive infrastructure. Contact the Kaysville Public Works Department for a detailed fee estimate based on your specific requirements.
