  • Cover photo description:
  • The Tower bridge in California, a vertical lift bridge over the Sacramento River. For years it was painted with a silver aluminum paint and people complained of the glare, it was repainted yellow-ochre as a Bicentennial project in 1976. In 2002 the residents voted for a new color scheme and it was painted Gold. On December 15, 1935, then-governor Frank Merriam dedicated the bridge, and led the inaugural crossing parade across it. 1000 homing pigeons were released to carry the news throughout California. The first train had crossed the bridge on November 7, 1935. The Tower Bridge was the first vertical lift bridge in the California Highway System after it was formally accepted by the state on January 11, 1936. The railroad tracks were removed in 1963. With the removal of the tracks, the roadway was restriped for four automobile lanes.
