Just two days after giving itself a huge pat on the back for getting the Bay Bridge open for the Tuesday commute, Caltrans is giving new red flags about the project completion date.
The single anchor suspension bridge is supposed to be open to traffic in 2013.
On Wednesday Caltrans said issues with steel deliveries from China has put them a year behind in the process of fabrication.

With high unemployment in the United States especially in the industrial heartland of America, why are we buying steel from China? Whatever happened to building up the manufacturing base of this country? This just boggles the mind that we have the capacity and the resources but we go to China to create jobs for their people. Who thought this was the way to create economic growth; let’s re-build American manufacturing first and put Americans back to work!
