Damaged Virginia Bridge May Stabilize For River Traffic

Virginia officials say the damaged Benjamin Harrison Bridge could be stabilized within 10 days to allow slow river traffic. A tanker collision tore a span, vessels cannot pass, and two vehicles submerged have been located. Two-phase stabilization, using anchors and concrete pilings, aims to free the tanker and restore the bridge foundation. The project, led by McLean Construction and designers Hardesty and Hanover, may cost about $2 million in total.
