– Permits

The statutes of the state of Michigan authorize the Delta County Road Commission to issue special permits for the movement over county roads of vehicles or loads, which exceed the size or weight limitations specified by law.

It is the purpose of the Delta County Road Commission to permit the movement of necessary overweight and oversize vehicles or loads consistent with the following obligations:

  • Protection of the motoring public from potential traffic hazards.
  • Protection of road surfaces, structures and private property.

The Delta County Road Commission uses Oxcart, an online-based permitting system for all permits. Oxcart can be accessed via their website:  https://www.oxcartpermits.com.
**Any old permitting forms submitted will not be accepted and/or approved. **
