[QUOTE="luvtoride, post: 1143642, member: 250"] I've crossed that bridge tunnel many, many times over the past 34 years. It used to only have the 1 span for all traffic. A rush was passing cars while on the bridge. In later years they build a 2nd crossing (now one for each direction) that still utilizes the same tunnels that already existed. & this isn't your normal bridge WNY. This is a bridge tunnel. There are 2 tunnels & the span of it is something like 17 miles. Gotta get those big Navy ships into port, somehow. It's a lovely thought when in the bottom of the tunnels there may be a large Navy vessel passing over your head. There is also the Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel (the scene of many a traffic clusterfuck) which doesn't compare in length to the CBBT. Altho, it was built for the same purpose... get those ships to where they're going. & honorable mention goes to... the Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge Tunnel. This entire area requires you to go through a tunnel or bridge to get in or out of here. [/QUOTE]
