Chesapeake Anniversary
On April 15, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel celebrated its 50th anniversary. After its opening in 1964, it was named one of the Seven Engineering Wonders of the Modern World but has since been replaced on the list.
Located where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean, the 17.6-mile bridge-tunnel complex is considered the world’s largest. By providing a fixed crossing that links Southeastern Virginia and the Delmarva Peninsula, travelers shave 95 miles off a trip between Virginia Beach and points north of Wilmington, Delaware.
