The eastern span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge is going to open to traffic around Labor Day weekend after all. The bridge has been in the works since the Loma Prieta earthquake of 1989.

Officials decided drivers would be safer on the new span with a temporary workaround than they would be on the old bridge.
