Video: Crossing the Rankin Bridge
Watch the video below to experience a typical drive across the Rankin Bridge (from Braddock/Rankin to Whitaker):
While the only indication of the rehabilitation project is the orange construction signs, you can imagine that the decrease of lanes from four to two will have a significant impact on the flow of traffic.
Plus, traffic is already backed up at the end of the bridge due to an unrelated construction project down River Road toward the Waterfront.
