[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need a bridge! 15 isn't really conducive to it. 28 would be ideal[/quote]

See, this aligns with what the Rockland owners want. They don’t want any development on the 15. My guess is that they are trying to get ahead of this issue and by closing the ferry, they force Maryland to the table. Rockland folks know a bridge will eventually come, but they’d rather be on another route far away from their 600 acres[/quote]

A bridge would never be constructed at the site of White's Ferry; it's too remote. A bridge IS needed further downstream between VA 28 and I-370/MD 200, but Maryland has been blocking it for years complaining that such a bridge would damage the Montgomery Agricultural Preserve. In reality Maryland doesn't want another bridge anywhere across the Potomac because the state's leaders know they would bleed even more jobs/residents to Virginia, as well as see more residents flying out of IAD instead of BWI.

Nah. BWI is usually The cheapest option unless you are going overseas.[/quote]
