Update to RIDOT OSOW Permit System! Starting April 1 the Permit System will no longer issue an ADL permit (permit weight sought) to a RI registered Tractor for a higher weight than the tractor is registered for in compliance with RIGL 31-6-3. Questions can be directed to DOT.OSOW@dot.ri.gov.

Before planning routes:

The latest vehicle size and weight restrictions can be found www.dot.ri.gov/travel/truckrestrictions.php
