Going to be orders of magnitude worse on replacement. Sadly, it's long overdue but will take forever and cost some astronomical amount.
The Old Man was the chief engineer on that bridge, originally known as the Cabin John Bridge. Opened back in '62 or '63. I think the piers are still original, but the damn thing's been re-decked at least three times. Bow my head every time I go over the bloody thing, lol.
