The Golden Gate Bridge is still screeching, but a fix may be on the way FacebookTwitterEmail The fog rolling past San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge, taken from Battery Spencer in the Marin Headlands.Rob Kroenert/Getty Images On June 5, 2020 the iconic bridge found its voice, and it wasn't pretty. It's been almost a year to the day that the Golden Gate Bridge started its ''screeching that sounds like torture," but a fix could be on the way. The sound has been described by locals as everything from "making music," to "eerie," to "huge and all encompassing." This writer heard the unearthly hum from the Memorial for Peace at Land's End this weekend, and can confirm that the sound, piercing through the fog combined with the eucalyptus branches cracking overhead, is a truly strange phenomenon.
