Repairs on the damaged 3rd Street Bridge in San Francisco continued Wednesday, a day after the span sustained damage after being struck by two industrial barges that became unmoored during Tuesday's storm.
Officials said the drawbridge is open for crossings, but span lifts remain on hold pending further assessment by engineers.
