Thats why we built this bridge and thats where were opening it on this weekend for seismic safety. Today marks the completion of not only this project but the california trance retrofit program. 24 is the last of 9 bridges 7 of which are in the bay area and theyve been respected to accumulate safety.

We honor those from the great demonstration that built the first bridge and from this day forward well honor folks that built this bridge on this l
