The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel District offers a driver's assistance program whereby the Police Department arranges for a District employee to drive a customer's personal vehicle across the Bridge-Tunnel whenever a customer has a phobia of heights, bridges, tunnels, etc.  This service is provided to hopefully pre-empt an unsafe incident involving a customer from occurring due to any phobia which may present itself when driving across the facility.

This service is offered to customers traveling in either an automobile, van, SUV, or pickup truck at no additional cost to the customer.

We request that customers make arrangements in advance for this service.  The District utilizes personnel who have other specific duties that they are responsible for besides providing this service.  A customer can expect to wait for this service depending on the time of day, day of the week, and calendar season.

Please contact the Police Department at (757) 331.2960 to arrange for an escort.
