Of delay, on several days, wher
storms were in progress, people
were just not venturing out
doors.
Thus, in 1957-58, there was q
drop OF 234,24e vehicles over
the previous year.
Checking compilations o.
other years, these gains were
shown:
From August Of 1851 to May
81, 1852, a period Of nine and
4 half months, 4,329, 873 cross
ings were recorded. Then the
first full fiscal year, 1928,
produced 6,995, ,O19 crossings :
an excess Of the annual total
predicted to be built up by the
year, 1860. This was the great
awakening to the fact that the
span was much needed.
Annual increases then became
the order, producing these ex-
cesses except as mentioned IN
1957-58:
1853 81, 5o3, 4o2; 1854 s.,
367,351; 1855 56, 598, 163;
1856 81, 394, ,986; 1857 So,
234,249 Qoss); 1853 SO, 780, :
S74; 1859 60, 657,45s; 1860 =
81, 572,52 1861 81, 7l6, 386;
and 1862 So, 589,239.
Thus, It IS readily seen why
several years ago attention was
given to studying the feasibility
OF a second span. Traffic actual
" built Up to a point where there
were more than $4,000 cross
ings in a single day on several
occasions. During peak days,
these last several years, a so, "
900 daily count no longer
created comment.
This meant that capacity at
peak hours was nearing satura-
tion and steps would have to be
taken to find relief. The firm
Of Howard, Needles, Tammen
and Bergendoff, consultants
since the first span was built,
made the necessary study for a
parallel span.
Secretary Of the Army, cyrus
r. Vance, approved a permit to
build the second structure Just
last week. It is expected that
this Will be a major item for
{ Consideration at the next
Authority meeting which Isl
scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 27.
Meanwhile, the new Authority.
has also gone on record to es-
tablish ferry service between
Cape May, New Jersey and
Lewes, Delaware. It Is expected
that ferries and equipment will
be purchased from the Virginia

Bridge Traffic

Just about twelve years ago
on August Is, 1851, dedication
exercises we're held and traffic
began to stream over the new
Delaware Memorial Bridge the
first link between the First State
and the State Of New Jersey.
Now a dozen years later =
with a volume Of more than
108, 900, 900 vehicles recorded :
a new bi-State commission
known as the Delaware River
and Bay Authority is contem-
plating the erection Of a second
span parallel to the present
structure.
The need for such action is
dramatically shown in a study
OF traffic figures for the decade
In which the bridge has served
as a crossroads Of eastern
travel for both tourists and
commercial traffic.
There has been an average
increase Of 467, ,606 vehicles
each yearxsince the span started
operation and total traffic has
been far ahead Of consulting en-
gineerS' estimates made prior
to its construction.
There is ample reason for
this differential bridge, officials
point out. The only criteria with
which engineers could work was
the traffic pattern established by
the old New Castle -Pennsville
ferry. In its biggest year the
ferry carried slightly in excess
Of three million vehicles.
The New Jersey Turnpike,
which has beer the principal
feeder line to the bridge, had
not gone into the planning stage
at the time Delaware legislators
approved plans for connection
between the two states in 1945.
In fact, the Turnpike was dedi-
Gated about a year after the
bridge formally opened to traf-
fic.
A study Of annual traffic
figures reveals that there was
Just one year when crossings
decreased. This was during fis-
cal, 1888. It was in January
and February Of 1858 that the
east coast had one OF its most
severe winters and traffic
movement was at a minimum.
Although the maintenance de-
partment kept the bridge free
OF snow and ice with a minimum

chandiSe.
Still listed as the seventh
longest single suspension bridge
in the world, 1t may have to
move down to eighth when a new
structure Is completed in the
New York area. But "t e
Bridge" does not have to bow
to anyone when it comes to pro-
viding safe passage to the null
titudes who use 1t.
Think of 1t travel agencies
estimate that the average pas
senger car carries 81 persons
on the average trip. II this be
so. then we'll over three hun
dred million people have
traversed the Delaware River
over this sleek structure OF
steel and concrete since Aug.
