Eastern span replacement of the San Francisco – Oakland Bay Bridge






Update on Bay Bridge, scheduled to open in 2013. The cost has gone from an original estimate of $1.1 billion to $6.2 billion. The quality of the construction has had it problems also. They say it will stand up to any earthquake, but will it stand up to American construction and engineering. If they had left off the final part which they are starting now, the 'Self Anchored Suspensions' section and continued with the Sky way, they would have saved a ton of money and been finished now.
