What gets hauled in Lincoln

Lincoln's 2026 budget puts its capital focus on road and right-of-way renewal, and the work is spread across the three communities. In Beamsville, Lincoln Avenue is being reconstructed with a new watermain from King Street to the South Service Road. Greenlane Road Phase 1A is substantially complete with its top asphalt due in the third quarter of 2026, and phases 2 and 3 are in design through 2027. In Vineland, the Prudhommes and Victoria Avenue watermain upgrades, a project of more than $13 million with two QEW crossings, are due to finish in the fourth quarter of 2026.

On the Regional side, King Street (Regional Road 81) from Greenlane Road to Lincoln Avenue started construction in spring 2026 and runs to spring 2027, and the Region's 2026 resurfacing program includes North Service Road from Ontario Street to Sann Road North. Other jobs follow each year's program, so this page does not list them. Dispatch knows what is running this season.

Where the material comes from, and where it goes

The Lincoln quarries sit on top of the Escarpment, south of Beamsville and Vineland, and cut dolostone from the Lockport Formation. Every loaded truck out of them comes down a grade: Victoria Avenue (Regional Road 24), Ontario Street (Regional Road 18) or Mountain Road. A Lincoln stone run is planned around the grade.

Excess soil and demolition debris go west to the Region's Niagara Road 12 Landfill on Concession 7 Road in West Lincoln. It takes construction and demolition waste and commercial clean soil once the Region approves it, and it is closed on Mondays and Sundays. Fees change yearly, so dispatch confirms the current tipping rate at booking.

Lincoln's site alteration and tree by-law (2024-50) exempts fill and topsoil only up to 8 cubic metres per 0.125 hectare of lot, with a grade change of no more than 0.2 metres, and the Town may order third-party testing of fill above 100 cubic metres. On top of that, Ontario's excess soil regulation (O. Reg. 406/19) puts a hauling record on each load of excess soil, and from January 1, 2027, clean excess soil can no longer go to landfill.

Rules that change a Lincoln job

Heavy-truck bans. Since September 8, 2025 the Town prohibits trucks over 15,000 kilograms registered gross weight from using Thirty Road and Mountainview Road, from King Street to the Town limit, as through routes. Local deliveries to homes, businesses, farms and wineries on those roads are still allowed. The Town's alternate route through Beamsville sends northbound trucks from Mountain Road east on King Street, north on Bartlett Road, then to the South Service Road and Ontario Street at the QEW, and eastbound King Street trucks use Durham Road to reach the South Service Road.

Spring reduced loads. From March 1 to April 30 the Region limits trucks to five tonnes per axle on posted roads. Two Lincoln stretches are on the list: Mud Street West from Hysert Road to Mountain Road, and Twenty Mile Road from Mountain Road to Vineland Townline Road. Dispatch plans the truck count around both.

Inspection-station bypass. The Town, the Region and the Ministry of Transportation are running a camera pilot on trucks that bypass the QEW inspection station between Vineland and Beamsville, and seven safety blitzes were scheduled for 2026.

Trucks on Lincoln sites

A Lincoln tri-axle typically carries 20 to 22 metric tonnes. Screened grindings and aggregates are delivered by the truckload the same way.

Every truck on a Lincoln job is paid the same rate, whoever owns it.

Questions people ask

Do spring load limits affect Lincoln jobs?

On posted roads, yes. From March 1 to April 30 the Niagara Region limits trucks to five tonnes per axle, and two Lincoln stretches are on the list: Mud Street West from Hysert Road to Mountain Road, and Twenty Mile Road from Mountain Road to Vineland Townline Road. Dispatch plans the truck count around it.

Can a loaded truck use Thirty Road or Mountainview Road in Lincoln?

Not for through traffic if it is over 15,000 kilograms registered gross weight. Since September 2025 the Town bans those trucks on both roads from King Street to the Town limit, with local deliveries to addresses on them still allowed.
