Maryland Approach Spans
View looking west (from the top of a v-pier) at the construction of the Maryland Approach Contract. This work from the Maryland shoreline to the new draw span is part of the largest single MSHA Contract ever awarded ($191M). The segments were manufactured in the casting yard near the Maryland shoreline and barged out to the Potomac River for placement on site. There are four v-pier supports being built (two for each bridge).
Note: The workers in the background are in the process of placing a segment .
