How low it gets here

Of the 2,360 restrictions in Washington, 265 are under 2.5 m, 257 sit between 2.5 and 3.2 m — the band where a typical motorhome has to stop — 195 between 3.2 and 4.0 m, and 538 above 4.0 m. The median signed clearance is 3.66 m.

What the numbers leave out

1,105 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 United States applies — 4.11 m.

Questions

How many low bridges are there in Washington?

2,360 height restrictions of every kind are recorded in Washington: 265 under 2.5 m and 257 between 2.5 and 3.2 m, the range that stops an ordinary motorhome.

What is the lowest bridge in Washington?

The lowest clearance a road vehicle can still pass is 2.00 m, and the table above starts with it. Anything signed lower is a gate or a barrier rather than a road.

How current is this data?

It is rebuilt every week from OpenStreetMap; these figures were measured on October 25, 2026. A restriction nobody has mapped is not here, so above 3 m plan the route before you set off.
