I agree we need a bridge somewhere between point of rocks and the American Legion bridge. It is insane that there is not one.

Maryland needs to own up to the development and build the infrastructure to support it. That includes a bridge east of Leesburg to pick up all the Maryland tech corridor commuters. They're creating incredible traffic snarls in tiny VA rural roads and towns not meant to see that level of traffic. It ain't VA's problem, but MD is making it VA's problem.
Maryland overall might be, but Montgomery County is not, and Montgomery County is what's across the river from Leesburg.
No, Maryland does not need new highways to Virginia.
Most virginians don't want it either. Just the local pols and the crazy commuters.
