@TheShakenbake3 AMEN.

Wheeling kinda sucks but it used to be booming back in the 80's and such. It's kinda cool though how I can live in Ohio and go to WV in 5 mins. I dont really like living in the Ohio Valley, but could be better, could be worse.

i remember when that bridge was just sitting alone with out a road to get to it.and it was blue and 470 wasn't finished yet.

[WormWormLai]

After crossing the bridge, we took Exit 5 toward the Kruger Street Toy and Train Museum. That is really a great treasure of West Virginia!!

Same here - grew up near Sherrard back in the '70s... we never thought they'd get it done. Always joked about the "Bridge to Nowhere".

Haven't been back there since '82, so it's a bit surreal to watch a video of people driving across it 30 years later...

yeah.seeing that up till before they stuck 470 up to it.i always wondered how the hell did they get it there.but i saw how they get bridges to places on history channel.Amazing how they do that.
