It's really wild that aside from the Chesapeak Bay Bridge Tunnel, there's another 3-5 tunnel/bridge combinations that cross pieces of the Chesapeak Bay. I'm actually kinda happy to say I've crossed all of them iirc. I know I've done the big one, shown here once or twice, the crossing at 64 I've done numerous times coming from South the North after leaving NC for vacation, and coming down North to South, the 664 crossing from Newport News past the West side of Norfolk is where I normally cross on my way to NC. Kinda wild they made so many though... makes me think that where Pittsburgh, PA might be the city of bridges, the Newport News/Norfolk area is the city of underwater tunnel/bridge combos.
I am thrilled they are going to build a parallel tunnel on the Bridge Tunnel. Hate driving thru that thing with 2 way traffic and huge trucks coming from opposite direction.
