Narrative:

Aircraft landed runway 9 and taxied out to gate c-r via txwys N1-north-H. After aircraft exited runway with left turn onto N1 ground said taxiway north not stressed for air carrier aircraft. Flight crew instructed to continue to gate via route mentioned above. Taxi weight restr not noted on commercial chart 10-9 (airport diagram), not notamed on aircraft departure papers, not broadcast on ATIS, nor mentioned by tower/ground until aircraft clear of runway. Tower/ground/approach probably remiss in failure to advise flight crew of taxi prohibition because of runway operation change from runway 36L to runway 09 due to high winds with little time to prepare owing to arrival volume. Recommendation: add weight bearing note to approach 10-9 airport diagram page. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: flight crew had no notice, NOTAMS, or indication that the taxiway had any restrs for their type of aircraft. Nothing was mentioned on the ATIS information regarding this, however, the ATIS after they landed was changed to announce the restr taxiway to landing aircraft. Pilot wants a change made to the approach plates.
