I-190 Buffalo bridge clearance

Planning a route that uses I-190 in Bufalo from I-90 to Grand Island, NY. Can someone please verify bridge clearance? We need 13' 6"

Low clearance (12' 6") declared on IATA website as 0.8 miles east of NY-5. Same on Coach-Net. On Google Maps, there are NO clearances posted on the overpasses or on any signage approaching that area. The only overpasses I see between I-90 and NY-5 are at Weiss St., Louisiana St., and NY-5 itself.

Go with the lower height. Goggle doesn’t show height as it’s for cars. I use
A dedicated RVs GPS.

Go buy yourself the truckers atlas from Ramd McNally and it's gives you all the information you need, I use this all the time when traveling in the East.

There is a FREE app called truckmap that works well for this. I now use a reasonably priced paid app called Sygic Truck and Caravan. Either one will calculate your route based on your weights and heights. The reason I changed from truckmap is that Sygic supports android auto so it uses my trucks own dash display and I don’t need to keep my phone out.

Do tractor trailer trucks travel this route? The height of those trucks is 13 1/2 ft to 14ft.
The standard height for an interstate highway bridge is 16ft, although it can be less, but with rare exceptions will not be 14ft or less.
If this route is less than 14ft there will not be any over the road tractor trailer trucks and I doubt it would be considered part of the interstate system. IMHO
