    Can you give me the Lat/Long or more detailed information on these?

    Ravenna, OH State Rt 14 zero notice of low bridge clearances of 11' and 13',

    I zoomed in on GoogleMaps and went at least 5 miles on each side of Ravenna, OH and I saw all the RR crossings the roads were over the RR, not under.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    I don't see where he said they were at RR crossings, just low bridge clearances on state route 14.

    I'm with Mark on this one...
    I followed SR14 in Ohio from I76 to I80 and there are no underpasses anywhere along that route.

    Mark...
    I just did the updates on my 720...
    I did the system updates first then did the map updates.
    However, after the maps updated I rechecked for updates and there were more sytem updates after the maps were updated.
    Just curious if some people don't do the system updates after it could probably create a problem.

    One thing i was disappointed with is the age of the map update. I immediately checked the new bridges over the Ohio River in Louisville and neither of them were there.
    I suspect this map update was probably issued around January making it a year old then and close to 2 years old now meaning my 720 will never get map updates for roads completed within the last 1 1/2 years. These are kind of a big deal when trip planning because i must use other software to trip plan with.
    I was wondering if the 740 has these new bridges.

    Map updates always first. If you do the system updates, then Maps, the maps are now newer and will require newer system updates... hence,,, always do the map updates first.

    I can check on a 740, but it all depends on when OH/KY reported the bridges as completed and not construction to HERE, remember HERE can take up to two years sometimes to get it into the Map Database. I have the next set of Maps and I can check, but give me a few days. I am prepping for GATS since it is next week.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    No I can't. I was just pointing out that he did not say anything about RR crossings figuring that was all you were looking for.

    Took a quick look just now using Google maps and the nearest underpasses to Ravenna I fond on route 14 were the one to the north west of Streetsburo (entrance ramp from I80) and the one to the south east at I76. Both are unmarked in street view but seem to be clearly higher than 13'6".

    Seems wilhusker13 is sighting the wrong road or town or possibly a side road that route 14 goes over.

    When you post, be sure to list as much detail as possible. It takes time for me to verify on Google Maps and by putting it in a route to see if it is in RM's database.

    If you cannot give me details, then I have no clue where you are looking at.

    Thanks,
    Mark
