A preferred alternative bridge design, in its very early stages, has been approved by Maryland's Transportation Authority for the aging Chesapeake Bay Bridge, which includes four travel lanes in each direction. Toll booths are about to come down on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge in California, as are the Bedford toll booths on I-95 in New Hampshire. That, plus our wishes for a safe and happy holiday, from Turnpikes.com.
