Here's a model of new portion of Bay Bridge, this is the SAS (Self-Anchored Suspension) span.

In the Information Office there's a display of interesting artifacts found at Yerba Buena Island.

 

 

The mile-long Skyway is almost completed. This portion will connect with the Suspension section.

 

 

The concrete skyway deck segments were precast in Stockton, CA

For comparison of old and new, study the existing Bay Bridge eastern cantilevered span. This will be demolished.
