How low it gets here
Of the 1,090 restrictions in Bern, 338 are under 2.5 m, 143 sit between 2.5 and 3.2 m — the band where a typical motorhome has to stop — 209 between 3.2 and 4.0 m, and 52 above 4.0 m. The median signed clearance is 2.60 m.
What the numbers leave out
348 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 Switzerland applies — 4.00 m.
