The Chesapeake Bay Bridge in Maryland reaches nearly 200 feet in certain parts and measures 4.3-miles long from end to end - and for some motorists, getting behind the wheel and driving across the bridge is simply out of the question.

Driving Across The Chesapeake Bay Bridge in Maryland
The Chesapeake Bay Bridge (known locally as the Bay Bridge) is a major dual-span bridge in the U.S. state of Maryland. Spanning the Chesapeake Bay, it connects the state's rural Eastern Shore region with the urban Western Shore. The original span, opened in 1952 and with a length of 4.3 miles (6.9 km), was the world's longest continuous over-water steel structure; the parallel span was added in 1973. The bridge is officially named the Gov. William Preston Lane Jr. Memorial Bridge after William Preston Lane Jr. who, as the 52nd Governor of Maryland, initiated its construction in the late 1940s finally after decades of political indecision and public controversy.
The bridge is part of U.S. Route 50 (US 50) and US 301, and serves as a vital link in both routes. As part of cross-country US 50, it connects the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area with Ocean City, Maryland, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, and other coastal tourist resort destinations. As part of US 301, it serves as part of an alternative route for Interstate 95 travelers, between northern Delaware and the Washington, D.C., area. Because of this linkage, the bridge is busy and has become known as a point of traffic congestion, particularly during peak hours and summer months.

In this video, I drive west on US 50 going across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge connecting the Delmarva Peninsula with the main part of Maryland (just east of Annapolis). Later in the video, I head to Sandy Point State Park to get a view of the bridge from the beach along the Chesapeake Bay.

The Maryland Chesapeake Bay Bridge
Here's a real time drive of the Maryland Chesapeake Bay Bridge, also known as the William Preston Lane Jr. Memorial Bridge. The bridge is made up of two different spans, the western and eastern spans, both of which are 4.3 miles long. In this video I drove the eastern span. Out of the two spans, the eastern span is the older span and opened to traffic on July 30, 1952. The western span opened to traffic on June 28, 1973. The Bay Bridge connects Maryland's Eastern Shore with the rest of the State making it so people would not have to take a ferry across the Chesapeake Bay or have to drive north to the top of the Bay and drive back down. In 2014 the bridge saw 25.5 million vehicles. The bridge is also under the control of the Maryland Transportation Authority.
