An intoxicated driver was arrested after going north in the southbound lanes on the Golden Gate Bridge, police said. The incident happened at about 4 a.m. Sunday, according to the California Highway Patrol. Police stopped the driver on the right shoulder of southbound Highway 101 near Alexander Avenue in the Marin Headlands, CHP Officer Arthur Tellez said. Officers found two loaded pistols and a loaded 31-round magazine in the vehicle, Tellez said.

With expansive views over the San Francisco Bay and its signature rust orange color, it's no wonder the Golden Gate Bridge is one of the most iconic anywhere. In fact, its architecture is so quintessentially San Francisco, the bridge was named the most iconic bridge in the world by car rental company Sixt. Among its myriad of accomplishments, the bridge plays host to more than 100,000 cars every day

Everyone was really stoked to see it, Toby Calhoun, a highliner who helped set up these ropes and rigs, told the Chronicle. I was getting lots of questions from campers and people at the beach. A lot of them assumed that because it was such a big project that there was a bigger purpose, or that we were doing an ad or something, but it was just a bunch of friends getting together to have a good time.

The Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District removed diversity, equity, and inclusion language from policy documents to secure a $400 million federal grant for a seismic retrofit.

The fast lane in each direction on the Golden Gate Bridge will close for three hours weekly for road maintenance, with a focus on light traffic times.
