Bridges with a low vertical clearance restriction on a state route, which may impede passing of a legal height vehicle, are flagged on the “Low Bridge” layer on the map. This layer only shows low bridges over state routes, and none are over PA Turnpike roadways. The “Posted Weight”, “Posted Other”, and “Closed” layers only show bridges carrying state routes. PennDOT’s APRAS (Automated Permit Routing and Analysis System) shall be used to route over-height and over-weight vehicles.
