[@bev_ovchic76]

As you can see, it’s new bridges and a tunnel. The disruption to existing traffic will be minimal if drivers freaking down their part, pay attention and drive. Lane closures are happening at night. Going from 2 to 4 lanes both way is worth suffering. We already suffer at the tunnel anyway going slow... I really can’t see this causing more interruption than there already is.

Every road that has been widened to accommodate traffic has seen an increase in traffic to accommodate the widening of the road. It's a vicious cycle that will never end unless we stop building roads and people actually learn how to drive.

[@shaunstevens4292]

More accurately, start charging people directly for road usage. This tax everyone and hide the bill nonsense is what leads to roadway overuse.

[@himabimdimwim]

"every road that has been widened to accommodate traffic has seen an increase in traffic to accommodate the widening of the road". While that applies in almost every interstate situation, it does not apply (to the same degree) here. For the most part, the length of the expansion project is between a point A and a point B. Most traffic will continue along the entire route from A to B. There is not much demand for point A to middle or middle to point B. The whole point of the expansion is to allow more capacity from point A to point B. If that induces more demand, between the peninsula and Norfolk/VB, then it will be a bonus to local economies. Additionally, it is not as If people going from point A to point B have a better route. Widening the road will not induce people to change to the HRBT from another road, because there is no (good) other road that serves point A to B.

The economics of a effective High-speed rail project only work out for a few large cities in the US mostly concentrated on the Acela route(Boston through to DC), Texas, Florida, Chicago to Detroit, and California. To better alleviate traffic better bus systems especially to Naval Station Norfolk are needed. Maybe a Tide extension could work but the extension to Naval Station Norfolk has to happen before then.

It’s actually a hallway that leads from one end to the other for maintenance and for moving people out during accidents. Used to be a little railroad that hand a hand pump train car. That’s what my grandpa said when he went through it brand new when he was 13, now he’s almost 60. Tells ya how well they built the existing one because it’s lasted that long haha

[@kazeryu17]

I can't say specifically where the doors lead, but there is actually alot of space beneath the road deck. My guess is that the doors lead to that service corridor, so maintenance worker's can access the drainage pumps, and other equipment.

[@streetrat7025]

I dont live in Hampton roads anymore because I left for the Army in 1997. There was talk about doing this for the last 20-30 years. Finally!

[@Megagon10k]

Object strongly to any tolls. Thats why you pay gas tax and pay income taxes, they do not need the toll money. you pay 21.2 center per gallon in taxes on your gas regardless if the gas is $1.40 or $2.50, that means the average person spends on a 12 gallon tank $2.54 in taxes per fill up if you are filling up 3 days a week that's $5.088 may aswell say $5.09 /week in taxes times lets say 110k vehicles crossing this bridge that's $559,680 / week in gas taxes take that and multiply it by a year that's $29,103,360 per year with only 110,000 vehicles being counted. now consider the actual number of vehicles in Hampton Roads and that's $414,467,040 /yr. They can afford the damn bridge without tolls

Plus the bad drivers never use toll roads so less bad drivers in the toll road and faster flow for you if your willing to pay.

Why don't you invest in better public transit infrastructure? That's what other modern countries have been doing for decades and it works. Just visit Japan or any European country. Their public transit systems are amazing. In America we always seem to think the solution to traffic congestion is to spend trillions of tax dollars on more road lanes. The real problem is single occupancy vehicles and unless you try to get people away from that, the problem of congestion will keep getting worse in American cities. Adding more lanes and tunnels is just putting a bandaid on the problem.

Hampton Roads has such a diverse population, driving habits is part of the congestion problem. I lived in Jacksonville, FL & they have a long 4 lane bridge leading to & from . It’s good in theory BUT what makes it unappealing are the long stretches of solid lines. I think it defeats the purpose of taking advantage of 4 lanes. It takes you right back to the old problems. Backups won’t stop. Accidents will still affect all 4 lanes, just look I-64 E. An investment in an all encompassing light rail system like they have in NYC will be tremendous. HR is just going to keep growing, more options are needed.
