I never get a chance to scan for traffic on any of the marine channels when I'm driving over the bridge at 50 mph.

I'd check for traffic on 7, 8, 11, 12, 18, 19, 67, 79, 80, and 88. Channel 13 and 16 will be used when any other vessels are traversing the construction area. It's also possible that the tugs, cranes, and workers are using a commercial LMR channel.

VHF Marine Ch. 10 (156.500) you’ll hear them all day

They also use Ch.16 (156.800) a lot to talk to oncoming vessels but make it brief
