I-664, Monitor-Merrimac Bridge Tunnel, Suffolk approach area

Suffolk, VirginiaApr 17, 20020 Comments

It is common for State Police to set up shop around the Suffolk side approach area to the Bridge Tunnel (from VA-Pri 164 interchange to the start of the Bridge). Mostly sitting off to the right behind trees and shrubs on the South-bound side but also within the "Authorized vehicle only driveway" right before the start of the bridge monitoring both sides. There may be some radar-ing done from the middle of the Inspection station on the North-bound side. A vehicle being pulled over for speeding is very common. The speed limit on the bridge is typically 55 max (it does change for weather problems) and 55 for the approach area. Traffic commonly exceeds 75. There are lines on the road in this area for aircraft VASCAR, although I don’t know of anyone caught using that yet. Not too far south of the approach area, the speed limit is increased to 60.
