Weight Limits
Build an app for weight limits on streets (for trucks). This would
help truck drivers find the most efficient routes by preemptively
avoiding the streets they can't drive on. Bonus points for including
low bridges that trucks can't fit under!

I am interested in working on a app for this, but I am having a hard
time finding the correct data set that contains street weight limits
and additionally bridge heights.

The city hasn't released it as far as I know, but if you can find it
you could combine it with a city data set and be eligible.

If you're still interested in this I have some more information - look
for an email from MCIC.
