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 | Kempsey Shire |
| Bellingen Shire | Liverpool Plains Shire |
| Coffs Harbour City | Port Macquarie / Hastings |
| Dungog Shire | Tamworth Regional |
| Gloucester Shire | Upper Hunter Shire |
| Great Lakes | Uralla Shire |
| Greater Taree City | Walcha Shire |
| Guyra Shire |
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.
