14'6" is legal height in Colorado. I know, crazy right? I got in a big argument with dispatch about it and they brought out the CDOT paperwork. (cost me a soda and a bunch of crow)
-
If your holding a permit for over height and on the interstate, is that considered a safe bet? Many overpasses are not labeled.

we just don’t have near as many low overpasses, especially unmarked on the interstate as you all do back East. -
The bridge coming into our town had a 13‘5“ clearance. Before that bridge, is a mile long 8% grade with a sweeping left-hand turn most of the way so you can’t see the bridge until you’re almost at it. All my life, there was a sign 3/4 of the way down the hill and it said the clearance was 13’7”. Last year the kid that plows my driveway clipped it with a well drilling rig, dinged the #### out of the first crossmember. Got out and measured it and it’s 13‘5“. They haven’t paved that road in my lifetime until about a month ago. They did not grind the old blacktop off. ...Someone ripped down the sign that said 13’7” shortly after the crossmember incident.
Last week they put up a new one that says 13’5”. I don’t know how it could be the same height clearance being that they did not mill off the top layer, they just topcoated it.booley, D.Tibbitt, Cabinover101 and 5 others Thank this.
