McCain to Lead Inquiry on Chesapeake Bay Bridge
Russell H. McCain, chair of the State Roads Commission, will lead an inquiry at Governor McKeldin's request to determine if the Chesapeake Bay bridge is being built properly. A 480 foot section broke away during towing and grounded on the Eastern Shore, prompting concerns over design safety and possible deficiencies. The $44 million bridge near Annapolis, built by J E Greiner Co, aims for a July opening. The governor called for independent engineers and bondholders' representatives to participate and report by next Saturday.
