December 15, 2009: The huge, dogbone-shaped steel eyebars dwarf workers in the above images, taken the week of Dec. 14, 2009, as crews work overnight to replace the damaged portion of a cracked eyebar on the East Span of the Bay Bridge.
Caltrans crews have completed both the replacement of the damaged portion of the eyebar on the East Span of the Bay Bridge, and the removal of the temporary fix installed in October.
Caltrans began its long-term repair of the failed eyebar on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge Dec. 11. The damaged eyebar was discovered during the Labor Day weekend bridge closure.
