While PennDOT works to raise bridge clearances, it suggests 511PA app for alerts

An over-height vehicle damaged a bridge carrying 
Route 51 over Interstate 70 in December 2021 in Rostraver. After emergency repairs, the bridge was replaced with two spans as part of reconstruction of the 51/70 interchange.

When drivers try to squeeze trucks under bridges with inadequate vertical clearance, it can tie up traffic and cause damage to the vehicle and the overhead structure.
