It's mostly so the coast guard can get to both sides of the bridge instead of having security boats on both sides.Hay Dipsh!t, what "Ship" has less than an 11 ft draft?
The opening of the temporary channel is the first step in a phased approach to opening the main channel back up again. The temporary channel will be marked with government lighted aids to navigation and will have a controlling depth of 11 feet, a 264-foot horizontal clearance, and vertical clearance 96 feet.
I'm not sure what reality you live in. How you logistically think a place like Southern Maryland works without private vehicles.
So with this so called climate emergency you want the large dirty semi-trucks (many hauling hazardous material) driving further and spewing more pollutants.I really think it is bad public policy to rebuild that bridge. First, we are in a climate emergency. Second, we should be investing instead in mass transportation projects. A bridge will only encourage people to continue taking their own means of transportation.
Check with the cruise line, they can switch to another port or just cancel.I got a friend on a cruise out of Baltimore, any guesses where the boat will dock now? Maybe Norfolk, VA.?
You mean the biggest donor?My money is on lowest bidder built the bridge
I just shake my head at the "conspiracy" theories. Oh, and you can bet the company is going to get blasted in the report.Man, that's some logical leaping there. One woman claiming unnamed sources is now hard confirmation of a thing. And the company saying they didn't do anything wrong is pretty much the opening position of any company accused of anything ever. If I recall correctly, we were supposed to be looking for a wave of follow-up attacks that were going to take advantage of the chaos confused by this one. Those didn't happen did they?

So, I used that bridge on regular trips to Langhorne PA from here.
