Seaboard System Railroad (CSX 

Railroad) Bridge, across Appomattox

allows the swing bridge to remain in the 

closed to navigation position to 

facilitate bridge upgrades.

March 8, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CSX 

Corporation, who owns and operates 

this swing bridge, has requested a 

temporary deviation from the current 

operating regulations set out in 33 CFR 

117.995 to facilitate bridge upgrades. 

Under the regular operating schedule, 

the Seaboard System Railroad (CSX 

Railroad) Bridge, mile 2.5, in Hopewell, 

VA, must open on signal if at least 24 

hour notice is given. The draw normally 

is in the closed to navigation position 

and only opens when proper notice is 

given. The Seaboard System Railroad 

(CSX Railroad) Bridge has a vertical 

clearance in the closed position to 

vessels of 10 feet above mean high 

water. 

Under this temporary deviation, the 

drawbridge will be maintained in the 

closed to navigation position from 8 

a.m. Saturday March 8, 2015, until 8 

p.m. Sunday March 9, 2015. The bridge 

will operate under the normal operating 

schedule at all other times. Emergency 

openings cannot be provided. There are 

no alternate routes for vessels transiting 

this section of the Appomattox River but 

vessels may pass before 8 a.m. on March 

8, 2015, and after 8 p.m. on March 9, 

2015, with advance notice. 

Appomattox River is used by a variety 

of vessels including commercial and 

recreational vessels. The Coast Guard 

has carefully coordinated the 

restrictions with these waterway users. 

The Coast Guard will also inform 

additional waterway users through our 

Local and Broadcast Notice to Mariners 

of the closure periods for the bridge so 

that vessels can arrange their transits to 

minimize any impacts caused by the 

temporary deviation. Mariners able to 

pass under the bridge in the closed 

position may do so at any time. 

Mariners are advised to proceed with 

caution. 

In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), 

the drawbridge must return to its regular 

operating schedule immediately at the 

end of the designated time period. 

This deviation from the operating 

regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 

117.35. 

Dated: February 20, 2015

Bridge Program Manager, Fifth Coast Guard 

District.
