Synopsis
Footage of traffic on upper deck of Bay Bridge, c. 1940. Two sets of three lanes go in either direction in this era, with the big bulky cars of those years able to navigate the narrower lanes and oncoming traffic. During the bridge makeover in the late 1950s, Key System trains were removed from the lower deck, the tunnel on Yerba Buena Island was expanded, and the upper deck was converted to one way with only five lanes.
