On the new eastern span replacement of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge (US Interstate 280) looking northeast with the old Bay Bridge visible at right, showing the self-anchored suspension bridge; Transportation in the San Francisco Bay Area is reliant on a complex multimodal infrastructure consisting of roads, bridges, highways, rail, tunnels, airports, and bike and pedestrian paths. Various agencies collectively manage several interstate highways and state routes, two subway networks, two commuter rail agencies, eight trans-bay bridges, a ferry, local bus service, three international airports, and an extensive network of roads, tunnels, and bike paths. Eight-lane and, in some parts, 10-lane freeways connect San Francisco to San Jose through the Peninsula. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 9/2/2015)
