The Mid North Weight of Loads Group works in co-operation with the New South Wales Roads and Traffic Authority to protect and prolong the life of our roads by reducing the incidence of overloaded vehicles.
The Group comprises the New South Wales Local Government Councils of:
| Armidale/Dumaresq | Liverpool Plains Shire |
| Bellingen Shire | Muswellbrook |
| Coffs Harbour City | Nambucca |
| Dungog Shire | Port Macquarie / Hastings |
| Gloucester Shire | Tamworth Regional |
| Great Lakes | Upper Hunter Shire |
| Greater Taree City | Uralla Shire |
| Kempsey | Walcha |
Although the Group issues breaches for overloading, it does have a focus on education which will assist truck operators in making sure their loads are legal and are not causing damage to roads.
As part of the Group’s education program, inspectors offer truck weighing on request and give advice on correct loading.
