Abstract:

Transbay Transit Center (TTC) will be a modern regional transit hub in the San Francisco Bay Area. The design of the bus ramp connecting the TTC to the San Francisco – Oakland Bay Bridge faced many challenges due to its site constraints. Through collaboration among engineers and architects, innovative engineering solutions were proposed and adopted to meet these challenges.
