I have a 13.6 load going to Portland PA from NC. Can you run to Allentown- Easton-N on 33 to I 78E to 611 N? Heard there was a low bridge on 191 but don't know if it is N or S of Stroudsburg. Just wondered if anyone runs 611 . Thanks
Anyone run 611 in PA

611 from Easton north as far as Portland should be ok, but past Portland north towards Stroudsburg is restricted to 96" wide (not sure but there may be length restrictions as well but it's been awhile).
Double check because I haven't been that way in quite some time so I'm just going off memory here. -
33n to 209 north to 80 east to last exit in pa (delaware water gap) which will be 611 take 611 south to portland .
the low bridge you are talking about i think it's marked 13'0 or 12'6 would be coming 611 north into portland by the toll booth. 13'6 does squeeze under it but no more
the way i said avoids that .
611 from easton up is narrow with alot of turns would suck25(2)+2 Thanks this. -
If you take 611 south from the Delaware Water Gap, via the exit (310?) that goes past the rest area, you'd better be 96" or the local LEO will be breaking out the tape measure. Been there, got the ticket, and the sign saying so is placed past the point of no return. If you see that sign, you're committed. It is also quite narrow and twisty from there down almost to Portland, where it opens up a bit.

Not sure about the low bridge but my atlas says RT191 is a restricted route running north from Rt 512 to Rt 611.
