Chuck Sanders, chief of the structural engineering section at U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Norfolk District, speaks on the importance of routine maintenance of the Deep Creek bridge in Chesapeake, VA while the District proceeds with the nearby construction of a new bridge as part of the Deep Creek Bridge Replacement Project. The currently standing, 90-year old bridge will be closed to both waterway and road traffic on August 18th, from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for maintenance. This closure is necessary to address minor damage to the bridge's support beams due to accelerated corrosion while also ensuring public safety during and after the repair.
