How low it gets here
Of the 556 restrictions in Istanbul, 57 are under 2.5 m, 33 sit between 2.5 and 3.2 m — the band where a typical motorhome has to stop — 42 between 3.2 and 4.0 m, and 361 above 4.0 m. The median signed clearance is 4.60 m.
What the numbers leave out
63 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 Türkiye applies — 4.00 m.

How current is this data?
It is rebuilt every week from OpenStreetMap; these figures were measured on September 18, 2026. A restriction nobody has mapped is not here, so above 3 m plan the route before you set off.
