How does a large truck pulling a tailer get through there?

I make it through there with an F-250 and a horse trailer just fine. The cobbles are meant to be driven over for trucks that need the room, although I've never had to go up and over them. The visual perception without taking the cobbles into account does make it look as though a tractor trailer could never negotiate through there without issue, but the cobbles aren't there to be pretty (although they do look nice), they actually have a purpose.

I wasn't a fan when it went in, but I'm used to it now as it no longer annoys the poo out of me when I go through it. It's purpose was to slow traffic down and control it's movement, so it certainly accomplished that on busier days. Do I want two more in Meredith? I'd prefer a bypass up and over the entire town but my full support of the tourism industry won't allow me to say that.
