Description
Majestic Bridges of The San Francisco Bay Area
The Benicia-Martinez Bridge was built to replace the ferries crossing the Carquinez Strait between Benicia and Martinez, the Benicia-Martinez Bridge is now a bustling span, and was the first of Northern California's bridges to feature an open road tolling system. The Carquinez Bridge was replaced with a beautiful suspension bridge in 2003, the Carquinez Bridge carries vehicles, bikes and pedestrians westbound across the Carquinez Strait. (The eastbound span carries vehicles only.). The original Dumbarton Bridge was the first vehicular crossing over San Francisco Bay proper. It now provides three lanes in each direction, as well as a bicycle/pedestrian path. The Richmond-San Rafael Bridge is located on Interstate 580 between Contra Costa and Marin counties and has served the needs of North Bay travelers for more than 60 years. The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge is the region's workhorse bridge, carrying more than a third of the traffic of all of the state-owned bridges combined. It is also a jewel along the San Francisco waterfront. The San Mateo-Hayward Bridge was widen to significantly improved evening commutes on State Route 92 between San Mateo and Alameda counties. -mtc
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate strait, the mile-wide, three-mile-long channel between San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The structure links the U.S. city of San Francisco, on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula, to Marin County, bridging both U.S. Route 101 and California State Route 1 across the strait. The bridge is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco, California, and the United States. It has been declared one of the Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers. -wikipedia
