Pichi Richi Pass Bridge Clearances
Permalink  

We're heading to Rawnsley Park station and the most direct route from where we are is through Pichi Richi Pass. However, there appear to be a number of low bridges and we're a little concerned since our van is a little over 3 metres high and we don't want to be stuck since reversing is not our forte and there doesn't seem to be much room on the road anyway.

So, is anybody aware of the height of these bridges and whether we'd get through with our caravan?

Thanks

Dave

Thanks for responding dogbox.

We managed to get in touch with the Pt Augusta Info Centre who've advised that there are 2 bridges and one is 4.8 metres and the other 20 so that is one less thing we have to worry about.

We recently went from PtAugusta to Quorn under a number of bridges with no issues. Then again, if in doubt check with the info centre.

Cheers

In Europe, we are using a Garmin 760LMT-D navigator. It can be programmed for the vehicle size and weight and knows about most of the bridge clearance heights etc.
Very useful.

Cheers,
Peter
