Who wants to bet the old bridge is built better than the new one?

@alexthager ya thats cool but guess what i lived up the street from the narrows bridge and watched it get built get some :P (P.S there was a construction worker scratching his butt on the cranes :D)

In a native of tacoma and what the deal now you gotta pay a toll to cross the narrows?

i live in WA and drive over both the newer one is nice because it does not have grates in between the lanes

They can't add another deck they already said it was being overloaded every day

[sideslide23]

the solution is to build another bridge, or make a lower deck a other way of traffic like we did on the bay bridge.

They should look at the Lions Gate Bridge. They only did it for the widening span. Not twinning the bridge like Tacoma.

@Ryoukun16 Well it's made in America, which makes it 10 times better that the rebar in the new bridge. And it looks cooler.

@KNGarver You can't switch lanes though.
