Document Description
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), which is the project proponent and lead agency for the project, proposes to replace the existing East Span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge between San Francisco and the East Bay with a new East Span ("East Span"), and thereafter remove the existing East Span ("project"). Caltrans has designed the new East Span to withstand a maximum credible earthquake on the San Andreas or Hayward Faults and to comply with current operation and safety standards for roadways to the greatest extent possible. Caltrans will construct the new East Span over a five-year period and remove the existing East Span over a two-year period after the new East Span is constructed. The project will therefore take seven years to complete. Caltrans will construct the new East Span under four separate contracts, described as follows: 1.) Self-Anchored Suspension/Yerba Buena Island Main Span; 2.) Skyway; 3.) Oakland Approach Structures; and 4.) Geofill at the Oakland Touchdown.
