6:05 pm
plan to open the bridge before then. but crews also plan to install metal shims, or plates, into this structure while the saddle retrofit work is happening. and it's been suggested that the shims would make this structure strong enough to open the bridge before the saddle retrofit is finished. >> reporter:for the moment caltrans won't commit to opening the bridge before december but they are exploring the shims idea. they've asked the federal highway administration to review the plan. a report is expected in mid august. >> reporter:no matter when repair work on the bridge is completed, whether its in december or earlier, caltrans will still need to shut down the bridge for 3 to 4 days in order to finish work near yerba buena island and the oakland approach. it's also possible that winter weather or other factors could delays the bridge's opening even longer. in the newsroom,
