Traveling across the USA? For sure, you will ride across one of the big bridges. If you want to see one of the seven engineering wonders of the modern world, you should definitely cross the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. The Chesapeake Bay on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other – this magnificent bridge tunnel is known as one of the largest bridge tunnels of its kind.
The Chesapeake Bay Bridge or officially the Lucius J. Kellam Jr. Bridge Tunnel is both a tourist attraction and a travel convenience.

Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel is a 17.6-mile (28.3 km) toll facility and at the same time, an award-winning engineering marvel. The bridge replaced ferries in 1964 but it was entirely completed in 1999. It is now one of fourteen bridge tunnel systems in the world. It carries US 13.
Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel is operated by Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel District. Direct crossing time is around 25 minutes. There is bus parking available, as well as a vending area and restrooms. Currently, a parallel tunnel at Thimble Shoal Channel is in progress.
