This isn't true. The only time I-80W is congested because of the Bay Bridge is during the morning commute hours. Every other time I've seen 80W backed up (and there have been many), it's because the access to 580E (and from there to 980 and 880S) is backed up. The bridge is generally uncrowded at these times. I know; I almost never take 80W->580E because of the congestion. This is due in large part to the collapse of the Cypress section of 880. ethan -- +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ ethan miller--cs grad student | "Anybody not wearing 2000000 sunblock's elm@cs.berkeley.edu | gonna have a REALLY bad day.
