Congressman DeSaulnier Wants State to Build Another Bridge Across the San Francisco Bay

Federal lawmakers are pushing the Metropolitan Transportation Commission to build a new bridge across the San Francisco Bay, but state Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, says that funding could be better used to build another cross-bay BART tunnel. Rep. Mark DeSaulnier, D-Concord, and U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, sent a letter Wednesday urging the MTC to construct an additional east-to-west bridge south of the Bay Bridge to ease commuting traffic, which has increased by 80 percent since 2010.
