Telstar Logistics brings us the scoop on the construction of the new Bay Bridge in San Francisco. They write:
We live in a time of many wonders and miracles, and one of them is taking shape in San Francisco Bay.
The new eastern span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge will replace the cantilevered span built in 1936. The old span was vulnerable to earthquakes — as the Bay Area discovered in 1989 — so the new structure is designed to be a bit less fragile.
