Trucking & LogisticsRoute Planning & Optimization4HighDispatcher$ implied
A permitted 14 ft high oversized load is routed under bridges with clearances of 13 ft 6 in or lower, forcing a potential costly reload onto a lowboy after a 24-hour driver wait.
Standard permitting and route planning failed to account for actual bridge clearances, leaving no reliable way to verify feasible oversized load routes in real time.
