Norfolk–Portsmouth Bridge–Tunnel
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. The Norfolk–Portsmouth Bridge–Tunnel was a project to connect downtown Norfolk, Virginia, United States with downtown Portsmouth via a drawbridge over the Eastern Branch Elizabeth River and a tunnel under the Southern Branch. It opened on May 23, 1952, predating the area's better-known bridge–tunnel complexes: the Hampton Roads Bridge–Tunnel, opened in 1957; the Chesapeake Bay Bridge–Tunnel, opened in 1964; and the Monitor–Merrimac Memorial Bridge–Tunnel, opened in 1992.
Substantially rebuilt with the tunnel portion expanded to four lanes, the Norfolk–Portsmouth Bridge–Tunnel complex, which carries Interstate 264, is now more commonly known as its two parts:
- The Berkley Bridge
- The Downtown Tunnel
