East Bay officials mark end of Dumbarton Bridge Seismic Retrofit

East Bay’s Toll Bridge Program Oversight Committee (TBPOC) has commemorated completion of the 27-month, US$98 million seismic retrofit of the 2.57km (1.6 mile) Dumbarton Bridge, in northern California. The Bridge, the last of the San Francisco Bay Area’s seven state-owned toll bridges to be retrofitted, leaves just one more outstanding project - the replacement of the East Span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge — remaining in East Bay’s historic $9 billion Toll Bridge Seismic Retrofit Program.
