we need more ****ing bridges in the north east and mid atlantic regions. there are millions of people sitting in traffic , because of bottlenecking at the damned bridges. if needed build a few islands, if the river is too wide. ya know what I mean? we've been living like this for years. YEARS! I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. do you want me to annex the land ?

Move somewhere else

millions of taxpayers paying millions of dollars. sitting in their cars. we need big bridges. or bridge tunnels. I want some small islands built, or small peninsulas. about 5 or six acres.

Like I said, GL with that. One single human being cannot annex anything. But I guess they can sure try! ;)

Don't expect an infrastructure bill out of the trump admin or incompetent GOP congress, let alone any help for the currently voting DEM northeast .
 
I will get my bridges built damnit.

Maryland will study building another bridge across the Chesapeake Bay

Maryland transportation officials are about to begin a four-year study examining where to build another crossing to relieve future traffic congestion on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, Gov. Larry Hogan (R) said Tuesday.
The study, which will start this fall and cost $5 million, also will explore ways the state could pay for another bridge, Hogan said.
[How the Chesapeake Bay Bridge is a staple of the summer getaway]
While the Bay Bridge can be safely maintained through 2065, Hogan said, studies show that, by 2040, westbound summer traffic on Sunday evenings could back up 14 miles. The bridge already has heavy congestion, particularly on summer weekends when Washington-area residents use it to head to and from Eastern Shore beach communities. It is also a daily commuting necessity for many Eastern Shore residents reaching jobs in Washington and Baltimore.
The bridge study, which is required under federal law, will examine the environmental effects of a new bridge and seek agreement from counties on the Eastern Shore about where to build it. It also will include cost estimates, traffic projections and preliminary financing options, Hogan said.
Starting Sept. 26, the state will begin issuing a new license plate showcasing Maryland’s red, yellow, black and white state flag. (Gov. Larry Hogan's office)
The Maryland Transportation Authority, which owns and operates the Bay Bridge and other state toll facilities, will conduct the study and seek community input via focus groups and public workshops.

In other news, Hogan announced that starting Sept. 26, the state will begin issuing a new license plate showcasing Maryland’s red, yellow, black and white state flag. It will replace the War of 1812 plate, which the state began issuing in 2010. Motorists can keep their current plates or buy the new one for $20 in person or online, he said.


STOP PLANNING AND START ****ING DOING !

Sounds like a fanstasy more than practicality. Heck I live here in texas, we have massive road congestion. We expand and build our roads yearly, but places like I-35 for example between austin and dallas aare so used that construction is an issue. The other issue is the population keeps growing faster than they can expand it, so by the time they turn a 2 lane highway into a four, the population grew to need a 6 lane highway or an 8.

These are facts of living in highly populated areas, if you hate it leave the city and move to a rural area, because no amount of construction can stop congestion on a bridge or a highway or a road.

this isn't true . there are many areas along the east coast , where people must drive for hours to reach their destination, because of limited ways to cross rivers. new roads and bridges will help.
