remove the one barrier that could open up natural marshland across the entire north bay. highway 37. first it helps to understand that the highway is essentially a 21-while levy with bridges and other openings spaced in between. with two lanes, it's also one of the most notorious bottlenecks in the bay area, prone to flooding, engineers expect even more challenges as sea level rise expands across the north bay shoreline. the san francisco estuary institute. >> everyone agrees the ultimate solution for highway 37 is to build a four lane elevated causeway that raises the four lane freeway. >> the reporter: but there's an increasingly intense debate over when and what to build. estimates for an elevated causeway, which would allow open marshes to flow naturally run from 6 to $8 billion. meanwhile, caltrans is studying a less costly, interim plan that would widen a stretch of the current highway while
