- What we do with it
- Parsed into dated restriction rows.
- Posting season
- 02-15 to 06-01 — MnDOT publishes both a start and an end date per frost zone before the season opens, and announces each at least three calendar days in advance. 2026's table ran Mar 3 (Metro/South/Southeast) to May 15 (North).
- Polling cadence today
- Outside Minnesota's posting window by 94 days — polled weekly, so an unscheduled restriction and a broken source are both found before the season opens.
- If our copy goes stale
- It errs toward missing a restriction posted since we last read it, because this source publishes a fixed end date that expires on its own.
About this data
Six frost zones, each with a published start and end date. MnDOT announces changes at least three days ahead, which is what makes a several-hour poll comfortably fast enough.
Read 1 day(s) ago (2026-11-12). The document states no date of its own.
