Low Bridge Alert

Low Bridge Alert warns you before every bridge that is lower than your vehicle – out loud, in your language, with the screen locked and your satnav running. Built by a working HGV driver.

SPOKEN WARNINGS THAT MATTER
• Early, urgent and repeating emergency warnings – you choose the distances (town, standard, motorway or your own)
• Only bridges AHEAD of you count – fewer false alarms from roads running beside or over a bridge
• 9 voice languages: English, Polski, Română, Deutsch, Français, Español, Italiano, Lietuvių, Български
• Keeps working with the screen locked; music and navigation are lowered while it speaks

YOUR VEHICLE, YOUR NUMBERS
• Exact height in metres and feet, plus a safety margin for arched bridges
• Every warning uses your check height = vehicle height + margin

BRIDGE MAP
• 16,000+ UK bridges and structures, plus London height restrictions from TfL
• Coloured for your height: red too low, orange below your check height, green OK
• Hide or show unsigned bridges (16'6" and higher) with one tap
• Works offline – bridges are stored on your phone

TRUCK ROUTE CHECK
• Type a town or postcode – get a truck route for your height that goes around the low bridges the app knows, before you set off

SAFETY FIRST
Low Bridge Alert is a driving aid. Road signs always come first. Bridge data comes from public and community sources and can be missing or out of date, and GPS can fail – you remain responsible for your vehicle height and route. Set the app up before you drive and never handle your phone while driving.
