Less than a mile from the contested Green Bridge, the county has identified another failing bridge for imminent replacement, on Levee Road.
The Sir Francis Drake Boulevard Bridge is a three-span, concrete slab structure that crosses Lagunitas and Olema Creeks and dates back to 1930. The county says it needs to replace it to address diminished load carrying capacity, erosion on one of the piers and its ability to withstand the force of an earthquake.
