It's part of the Baltimore beltway. Actually it made the loop complete to be a "belt" around Baltimore. It was complete in 1977 I believe. A friend and I drove the whole loop once, my only time I've ever been on it. Where I live it's just not used unless you work in the area. So I was on it once and vowed never again ..... too high and on a windy day it WAS kind of scary. Trucks would get warnings on really windy days
One person walked away, refusing treatment.
One of the main reasons it was built was for trucks. Before being built you used one of the tunnels. One tunnel can't handle the size of a lot of trucks and now both tunnels are banned to trucks for safety reasons. That happened once the bridge was complete.
