ALBERTA OVERSIZE PERMITS & ESCORTS INFORMATION

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS:

Tractor Wheelbase: On legal sized loads, tractor wheelbase (from center of steer axle to center of drive axles) cannot exceed 244 inches without the Annual Permit for Long Wheelbase Tractors.  This still limits overall length to maximum of 75’6″. With an annual dimension permit and with a single trip oversize or overweight permit, tractor wheelbase is allowed to increase to a maximum of 267.7 inches.

Tridem Drive Tractor: Tridem drive tractors are not legal unless all axles drive and are evenly spaced. Lift axles are not allowed. If a lift axle is chained up, wheelbase rules apply.

Spread Axles: A spread axle group (6′ or more spread) is not allowed to carry more than 20,000 pounds total (10,000 pounds per axle).

Lift & Flip Axles: Alberta does not recognize lift axles unless they meet very specific guidelines outlines in the Annual Equipment Exemption Permit for Trailer Lift Axles.   Otherwise they must be chained up securely. Flip axles are allowed on double-drop trailers with an Annual Equipment Exemption, if they are evenly spaced and put up when trailer is not loaded, trailer kingpin to center of axle group does not exceed 50 feet, trailer length does not exceed 60 feet, and overall length does not exceed 82 feet.
