Hi everyone,

I know the center span is about 194ft.

There is a channel on the east side of Rose island (runs close to the
navy base) and since I am in the point I was wondering what the height
of this span?

Anybody know?

Thanks,

Do you have a chart of the area? The bridge clearances are always
marked there… Herm

I do but it is not marked. I even downloaded a new chart from NOAA and
it is not marked there either.

Not marked for that span since it is not the supposedly
navigable channel and I have hit it …
