de onderdoorgang

Translation

underpass / headroom

A place where the road passes under a bridge, viaduct or building. Sign L1 states the headroom of the underpass, and that figure refers to the lowest point, not to the middle of the arch. Anyone taller than the sign states may not go through: that ban belongs to sign C19, which keeps out vehicles that including their load are taller than indicated. A roof box, a bike carrier or a raised tipper body simply counts towards the height.

How it sounds in the exam
