Highway Use Permit - Residential & Agricultural Access
Last updated on August 30, 2023Residential and agricultural property owners must apply for a highway use permit to create or change driveway access off a provincially owned controlled access or numbered highway.
Property owners do not need a permit to create or change residential driveway access for a single family dwelling if the property is:
- Located off a provincially maintained side road outside the municipal boundary, and
- The access is not off a controlled access highway or numbered route
If large agricultural vehicles or equipment are accessing fields and barns from a provincially maintained road, property owners must apply for a highway use permit for access.
A transportation design report may be required for multi-family residential access.
