SPUR Forum: Assessing Contraflow on the Bay Bridge

12:14 PM PDT on April 7, 2014

From SPUR:

When the Transbay Transit Center opens in late 2017, more than 300 buses are planned to arrive or depart each hour, though that number depends on Bay Bridge traffic. A morning contraflow lane on the bridge may help facilitate that flow, but it could also make traffic worse. Learn why, and whether such a project could be successful.
