Bay Bridge low bid comes in under Caltrans estimate
Published:  March 23, 2006

The self-anchored suspension bridge will have a single tower supporting a 365m forward span and a back span of 165m. Instead of using large anchorages, a suspension cable will wrap over the tower, underneath the western end of the span then over the tower again before anchoring in the roadway decks at the eastern end.
