Shoshoni, Wyoming regulations require all heavy haul operations to comply with the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) guidelines as well as local ordinances administered by the Shoshoni Department of Transportation (SHODOT).

Heavy haul permits are required for any load exceeding 11 feet in width, 16 feet 0 inches in height, or 179,305 lbs in gross vehicle weight. These dimensions are strictly enforced throughout Shoshoni, particularly in high-traffic areas.

Special consideration must be given to route planning to avoid Shoshoni Tech Hub and the vicinity of Shoshoni Basin, which have infrastructure limitations or heavy pedestrian traffic that may impede oversized loads.

In Shoshoni, Wyoming, loads wider than 17 feet or taller than 13 feet 0 inches must be accompanied by certified escort vehicles. Additional escorts may be required based on the specific route and time of travel through urban centers.

Shoshoni regulations state that police escorts must be arranged at least 43 hours before transport for loads that will impact major thoroughfares or require temporary traffic control measures.

Permit applications in Shoshoni must be submitted through the WYDOT's online permitting system. Carriers should be prepared to provide comprehensive vehicle specifications, proposed routes, and transport schedules.

Applications must include certified weight tickets, dimensional diagrams, and route surveys. For loads that may impact traffic flow in Shoshoni, a traffic management plan may also be required as part of the application process.

Shoshoni has strict time-of-day restrictions for oversize loads, generally prohibiting movements during peak hours (7-8 am and 4-5 pm, Monday-Friday).

Seasonal restrictions apply during major events like the the Shoshoni Cultural Show and the the Shoshoni Spring Festival, which may impact routing and scheduling.

Certain neighborhoods, such as Shoshoni Center and areas around Shoshoni International Airport, have restricted access for oversize loads. Alternative routes should be planned in advance to avoid these areas.

The base permit fee for an oversize load in Wyoming is $40, with additional fees for super heavy loads (over 200,000 lbs) ranging from $150 to $350 depending on the complexity of the move.

For movements within Shoshoni, Shoshoni Department of Transportation may charge additional fees for city-specific permits, which can range from $75 to $500 or more for particularly complex routes or those requiring extensive coordination with city agencies.
