Bay Bridge crossing becomes an ordeal
Sun collegaue Liz Bowie reports the trip from the Interstate 97-U.S. 50 interchange to the Bay Bridge took about an hour this evening as the fog-bound bridge operated with only two eastbound lanes.
At peak eastbound travel times, such as the evening rush hour, the Maryland Transportation Authority usually opens one lane of the westbound span to eastbound traffic. However, when weather conditions are bad, iit does not run two-way traffic on the westbound bridge.
