| dbo:abstract |
The Veterans Bridge is a fixed span concrete bridge that spans the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River in the Deep Creek neighborhood of Chesapeake in southeastern Virginia, USA. The bridge, which partially opened in 2014, currently carries two lanes of U.S. Route 17 (US 17; Dominion Blvd) on each direction across its northbound and southbound spans. The corridor frequently acts as a bypass route for congested I-64 High Rise Bridge traffic. It replaces the much shorter and smaller Dominion Boulevard Steel Bridge, which because of its 11-foot underwater clearance opened on average of 16 times per day. Tolling began on the route on February 9, 2017. Most cars, SUVs and passenger trucks that use the bridge and utilize an E-ZPass transponder will only pay 1tocross.Largervehicles,suchastransitbussesandsemi−trailertrucks,willfaceanE−ZPasstollrangingfrom1 to cross. Larger vehicles, such as transit busses and semi-trailer trucks, will face an E-ZPass toll ranging from 1tocross.Largervehicles,suchastransitbussesandsemi−trailertrucks,willfaceanE−ZPasstollrangingfrom1.50 to 2.50,dependingonitsclassification.However,thosesamevehiclescrossingwithoutatransponderwillstillpaytheirrespectivebasetoll,butwillalsoincura2.50, depending on its classification.
