The Chesapeake Bay Bridge stands near Annapolis, Md., April 3, 2020. America’s roads are a lot less congested, due to coronavirus shutdowns that have kept millions of commuters, shoppers and vacationers parked at their homes. While that makes it easier to patch potholes, it also could spell trouble for road and bridge projects, as revenue from tolls, fuel taxes and other user fees declines. A westbound lane of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge recently re-opened to vehicles following repairs. The $27 million project was completed well ahead of schedule, partly because of light traffic amid the coronavirus pandemic. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh)
