Narrows Bridge & Boat Photo

A scenic picture taken of the "double" Narrows Bridge and a boat underneath. Being built next to the old Narrows Bridge built in 1950 is the new bridge which is nearly 80 percent complete. The new bridge opens to traffic in summer 2007, but renovations on the 1950 bridge go on for another 11 months after that. In summer 2008, when the new and existing bridges open in their final form, the 1950 span will take drivers westbound on two general purpose lanes and one carpool lane. The new bridge will carry eastbound traffic on two general purpose lanes, one carpool lane and a fourth "drop" lane.
