I don't agree.
If the original road surface was concrete and a layer of asphalt was added, then the clearance could be lower because concrete is not normally removed - just scratched and grooved so the new top layer will adhere. Agree that they remove asphalt prior to repaving.
Never seen a sign that says 'actual'. Just the numbers. IMO that would be a crazy idea to do that. How would anyone know what the real clearance is for all the other places ?
And FYI - My Allstays app gives low clearances for all roads as far as I can tell. As an example, it shows low clearances for streets that go under interstate highways.
