WEIGHT RESTRICTION ON LAMI BRIDGE

Fiji Roads Authority (FRA) is advising members of the public that there is a load restriction on the Lami Bridge of a maximum 8000kg individual axle load for all types of vehicles, effective immediately.

It is important to note that mobile cranes exceed the axle load limit are hereby prohibited to cross the bridge.

With prior FRA review, it may possible for mobile cranes to be transported using a low bed combination vehicle provided that the loading on the axles complies with LTA regulations and is distributed over a long truck configuration. The bridge will be restricted to one-way traffic during any such movements over the bridge.

This restriction does not affect haulage vehicles/trucks that complies with the LTA regulations. Heavy vehicles are requested to cross the bridge one at a time. We have installed signage indicating the weight restriction near the bridge.

The FRA strongly stresses that there is no restriction for any vehicle operating within the current vehicle load criteria; this restriction only applies to heavy vehicles with few axles.

FRA wishes to apologise for any inconvenience.  For further queries please call FRA on 5720.
