Storm Closes North Bay Roads

NORTH BAY, CA – Stormy weather has resulted in several road closures Tuesday morning in the North Bay.

Due to winds with gusts estimated to be between 50 and 60 mph, the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District has closed the sidewalks on the Golden Gate Bridge. In addition to pedestrians, the bridge's sidewalk is also closed to bicycles.

The district has also closed a handful of bus stops because of flooding. The Manzanita Park and Ride near U.S. Highway 101 and state Highway 1 in Mill Valley is closed, as well as The San Anselmo Hub, located near
Center and Sir Francis Drake boulevards in San Anselmo.

Flash flooding has also prompted the closure of Sir Francis Drake Boulevard in both the eastbound and westbound directions between La Cuesta and Eliseo drives in San Rafael, district officials said.

The Ferry Terminal in Larkspur is also experiencing some flooding due to rain and high tides. Although some ferry trips are seeing delays, no trips have been canceled, according to the district.
