How low it gets here

Of the 947 restrictions in Porto, 307 are under 2.5 m, 107 sit between 2.5 and 3.2 m — the band where a typical motorhome has to stop — 28 between 3.2 and 4.0 m, and 138 above 4.0 m. The median signed clearance is 2.20 m.

What the numbers leave out

367 of them state no height at all. That is not a clear road: somebody recorded a limit without a number. Treat those as obstacles of unknown height. Where nothing is signed, the general limit in Portugal applies — 4.00 m.
