UK Railway Network LOW Bridges Add Visual and Audible Warnings on approach
UK Railway Networks has 100s of LOW Bridges across UK. Please add Visual and Audible Warnings on approach and give drivers an option to AVOID low bridges. i.e. ask height of vehicle and suggest alternative routes avoiding low bridges. I am happy to help to source a list of all Low Bridges on UK Rail Network.
Every year in Britain there are about 2,000 bridge strikes, where road vehicles hit railway bridges and viaducts – that's an average of more than five every day. Each incident can cause hours of delays for tens of thousands of rail passengers – and road users – and costs the taxpayer thousands in repairs and compensation.

Hi fellow poker players, I recently found https://rblahila.site123.me/my-blog/how-to-find-raja-poker-online and it has been a revelation for my online poker journey. The site provides detailed and honest reviews of various online poker sites, which helped me choose the right one for me. The strategy guides are incredibly well-written and have helped me understand the game on a deeper level. Additionally, the community aspect of the site allows me to interact with other players and exchange valuable insights. If you’re passionate about poker and want to improve your game, zepo.in is the perfect resource. I can't recommend it enough.

Hello,
On behalf of the railway carrier in czech republic, we would like to approach you regarding cooperation with the goal of increasing safety on the roads, especially at railway crossings. Our trains are equipped with a GPS modules and we can share with you/your app our signal. Users of your WAZE application will not only be informed about approaching railway crossings but also about approaching trains to this point, which will enhance safety, especially at unprotected crossings.
Could we please connect to discuss this form of cooperation in more detail?
Thank you very much,

There are a number of different suggestion threads all about the same thing.
Rail bridges would be a must, to stop bridge strikes, but other bridges (canals, disused railways etc. should also be included.
It should be possible to set the vehicle height in the app.
I had a recent example of this, in Cornwall with a 2.5m high old railway bridge, and I have a canoe on my roof. I made it through but it was tight. The block on front of me (probably also using Waze) had to take his bike off his roof, and the van behind (probably also using Waze) had to reverse up the very narrow lane and find another route.
