(A) Statement of purpose. The city finds that traffic from heavy vehicles causes substantial damage to city streets and results in the deterioration of said streets at great expense to city taxpayers. It is therefore necessary to restrict traffic from heavy vehicles to a designated truck route to reduce deterioration caused to city streets by such vehicles.
(B) Street weight limit. It shall be unlawful to operate upon any street or alley in the city, any truck, truck-tractor, semi-trailer or trailer or combination thereof having a gross weight of more than 20,000 pounds, other than as provided below, except that said vehicles may exceed said limitations if they are being used to deliver goods and/or items to and from residences and/or businesses in the city.
(C) Truck route. Vehicles exceeding the weight limit of 20,000 pounds prescribed by division (B) above may only be operated upon the streets and alleys within the city listed in Chapter 72, Schedule I.
