Description

Represents future overheight vehicle warning systems. The system will provide detection and warnings for overheight vehicles approaching structures with potentially low clearance heights, such as overpass bridges. This system will provide advanced warnings using static signboards/flashing beacons that will activate upon detection of an overheight vehicle.

A future overheight vehicle warning system is proposed for the US–67 corridor.
