Best Times to Travel

Travel off-peak when crossing from shore to shore. The best times to travel the Bay Bridge on weekends include:

  • Friday – before 10 a.m. and after 10 p.m.
  • Saturday – before 8 a.m. and after 6 p.m.
  • Sunday – before 10 a.m. and after 10 p.m.

Avoid distractions, maintain a safe following distance and follow posted speed limits. Motorists should stay on US 50 on both sides of the bridge to keep local roadways open for first responders and residents.
