I can't even remember when they started building this thing. It's been so long since it was started, and now it's way overdue and way overbudget and has been causing traffic nightmares for YEARS.
And despite all of the progress shown in this video, the thing is STILL not finished. It's supposed to open tomorrow.
(A link to the video, since LJ won't let me embedd the thing. Must've been the same &^%*$! people who planned the bridge construction!)

At one point I was actually seriously starting to think they wouldn't finish it, that the money would run out and they'd have to leave it half finished. I could write another very long post about all of the problems this construction has caused Bay Area commuters drivers, including unimaginable traffic jams at all hours of day and night.
(At the moment the local subway trains are jammed to the brink with riders because of yet another Bay Bridge closure.)
Come on guys, FINALLY finish that %#$@&!!!
