Newbies beware-will make you cringe

If you can't raise the height of the bridge then lower the road. That's what they did in New England for many historic bridges and trestles. A lot of the bridges have massive stone-work on each side that just cannot be altered. The solution: As you approached the overpass from either side the road would dive down several feet in order to increase the clearance.

As stated on the 11Foot8 website, there is a sewer line just under the roadway ... it cannot be ground down lower.
