Folks may be planning to go to work today and see how the outages go. That may be the case. Well see how the morning progresses. There are no major problems getting toward the bay bridge but again the early backup shows coming off of the maze, a smooth drive through Contra Costa County, and from the north bay, both across the carquinez bridge and the golden gate bridge.
