Aqueduct Bridge Plan Rendered Amid Rising Costs in DC
Congressional engineers Gen Black and Col Keller told the House appropriations committee that a single deck 80 foot wide concrete bridge across the Potomac at Georgetown will cost about 1.451 million dollars, with 1.15 million already appropriated and 300 thousand more needed. The plan keeps a single deck with five spans and arches, plus viaducts, and construction may proceed if the extra funds are added. The project reflects surging materials costs over the past year and opposes a double deck layout due to expense.
