Maryland transportation authorities have canceled the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Walk for the fifth year in a row, citing budget concerns.
MTA spokesperson Kelly Melhem says the popular walk across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge is not being held because of "ongoing cost-containment measures." She says the event has become more expensive since Sept. 11 due to increases in security.

Yes, because they haven't spent enough on new cars, tow trucks, and fancy new paint schemes.... They spend plenty on the stuff they want.
Has anyone else noticed how badly the EB span's paint job is holding up?

Yeah, good riddens. Already facing toll increases to barely maintain the structure and we face enough traffic problems that happen at the drop of a hat. Best appreciated doing 70 mph in the left lane... I mean 50....
