Bay Area Traffic Nightmare! PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 30 October 2009

After a main cable broke on the bridge on October 27th, traffic throughout the entire Bay Area has been negatively affected.  Officials plan to re-open the Bridge by Friday evening…we shall see.

On the flip side, daily commuters along my San Francisco-Marin bike commute went about their daily business.  Unlike the discontent from folks stuck in their cars during the nightmare gridlock, smiles prevailed along the bike paths.  In fact, I saw many new faces out on the paths today on their bikes with packs on, choosing the “alternative” way to get to work.  Who knows, perhaps an occurrence like this will encourage more people to seek alternative modes of transportation.
