I know this was not done today. But with present tech, driving that route with a radar/lidar mapping the surroundings. And going over that data with visualization and angles of the truck etc you could do it fairly easy.

Edit: (for a team of engineers and hauling-specialists)

Nah, these days they'll measure everything, load into ChatGPT and ask it to plan a route and it will do it in 10 minutes.

Too bad for these 3-5 houses needed to demolish to make room because the AI got it mostly right

"You're absolutely right to push back on that. When I said the load would fit through I didn't account for the corporeal nature of buildings along the way."

Yea using AI 2026 is pretty much taken for granted right? But a team of engineers and haul specialist would probably still oversee the details...
