It says the bay bridge, there is only one bay bridge, besides it says highway 80 and 580, they are in CA. This is in Oakland, CA.

I get it now. It goes back to my days in journalism. A story written like this - without the pertinent information in the first paragraph - would have been tossed on the floor and rewritten.

This was written for local consumption. It says Bay Bridge in the first paragraph. Locals don't need to be told that is in California.
