Place an unmanned booth with a no trucks sign and a bar over the road that would block the height of a large truck about a mile or two back with a turnaround.

The height doesn't matter, it's the length. They could easily stop trucks with two jersey barriers made into a chicane.

If there is a large enterprise truck or ambulance or whatever that doesn’t fit they could go around by using the turnaround area next to the to the booth to bypass the height restricted bar over the road. This would be a cheap and easy to implement solution to the problem.

Take this idea straight to the capitol building. This would ACTUALLY prevent the problem.

Height =/= Length

Yeah, but usually if something is as tall as a semi it's too long to fit through the notch.

This answer gets shot down every time, but there are a very few long trucks that aren't tall, but there are very few trucks that are short enough to not be stopped by a bar/chain chlurtain that are still long enough to get stuck in the Notch.
