WASHINGTON - Get ready for more lane closures on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
The westbound span of the Bay Bridge is getting a $20 million makeover. For the first time in decades, that portion of the bridge is slated to be cleaned and repainted.
The bridge has not been fully painted since it opened in 1973.
Most of the work will be performed from the water via barges, however, it will require scaffolding along the twin bridge towers, says Kelly Melhem, spokesperson for the Maryland Transportation Authority.
