The already challenging drive through downtown San Francisco is about to get worse.
A main artery to the Bay Bridge will be closed Memorial Day weekend all because of work on the new Transbay Transit Center.
The next step in the massive construction project is to excavate First Street. So over the holiday weekend crews plan to install a temporary bridge to handle traffic.
Getting the structure in place means three days of commuter frustration. It is already slow-going near construction of the Transbay Transit Center. Commuters use words such as nightmare and disaster.
Memorial Day weekend the round-the-clock work will enter the next phase.
Crews will excavating the entire footprint from close to 2nd Street over across Beale Street.
In a room high above the construction site, members of the Transbay Joint Powers Authority are overseeing the plans to install three temporary bridges along First, Fremont and Beale Streets.
"Between the three of them they are going to allow us to construct the transit center, below grade portion, which are almost four blocks long," said Robert Beck, Senior Programmer Transbay Joint Powers Authority.
The bridges will be installed over three different holiday weekends Memorial Day, Labor Day and Veterans Day to minimize the impact.
Scott Balestrery of Oakland said he would ditch his car and take Bart.
The first street closure from Mission to Howard begins next Friday at 8 p.m. and runs through 5 a.m. Tuesday, during that time drivers headed to the Bay Bridge will be detoured.
The Golden Gate Bridge is turning 75 on May 27, which calls for a grand celebration of fireworks, music, maritime displays and bridge memorabilia -- the details of which were posted Wednesday on the festival's website.
The bridge's 75th anniversary will be an all-day affair starting around 10 a.m. and continuing through the night until about 11 p.m.
Various exhibits will be on display throughout the Marina, Presidio and Golden Gate National Park area all day including an orange artists' exhibition at Fort Point to celebrate the bridge's distinct coloring; music and dancing at Crissy Field and on the Marina Green; and a vintage maritime display with classic boats at the ready for viewing at St. Francis Yacht Club.
Throughout the day, official 75th anniversary merchandise will be available from vendors at the Marina Green, Crissy Field and Golden Gate Bridge Plaza.
The day will culminate in a fireworks show at 9:30 p.m. paired with tunes from radio station KFOG 104.5 FM. The fireworks display will not be televised.
Organizers recommend heading to the waterfront along Fort Point to the Marina Green for best visibility or across the bridge in the Marin Headlands. Hilly spots in the Marina and Cow Hollow neighborhoods should also provide optimal views of the show.
The festival finale will not be visible from Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf and further down the Embarcadero.
Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy spokesman David Shaw said BART and San Francisco Municipal Railway transportation services will be increased as tens of thousands are expected to head to the San Francisco end of the bridge for the celebration of the landmark structure that was completed in 1937.
Shaw said event organizers highly encourage attendees to take public transit to the festival, as parking will be tight and street traffic congested. There will be no public parking in the Presidio, Crissy Field, or Marina Green.
Free bicycle parking will be available for those who will pedal to the event.
Unlike the 50th anniversary there will be no bridge walk this year. However, the bridge span will be open for cars throughout the day and for most of the night. The pedestrian walkways will be open until 6 p.m. the day of the festival and reopen by 10 p.m., after the fireworks end.
All gates leading into San Francisco's Presidio will be closed to cars.
For those who cannot wait for the festivities only 10 days away, this Saturday morning the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy will be creating a "human bridge" as tribute to the real bridge. As many as 1,000 volunteers dressed in orange will arrange themselves on the shore of Crissy Field beach as the iconic landmark with the number 75 floating above.
An aerial camera will snap a photo of the "bridge," which Shaw said will be a "fun thing that we thought people would enjoy."
To participate, don orange and head to Crissy Field in the Presidio by 9 a.m. Saturday morning.
For the tech-savvy, the Golden Gate Bridge has its own smart phone application, available for free download at the Apple iTunes store. It is called "GoGGBridge."
More information about the anniversary of the bridge is available at goldengatebridge75.org.

A man who had been missing for a week is in the hospital Wednesday night after police discovered him in a wooded area by Highway 101, near where his car had been found days earlier in a story of survival one officer called miraculous.
The 25-year-old man was first reported missing by his family when he failed to show up for a funeral service on Thursday evening. No one had heard from him since May 8 at around 1:00 a.m., police said.
On Monday police learned that the man's car had been towed on May 8 after being involved in a single-vehicle rollover collision near Highway 101 and Hellyer Avenue.
"We had somebody say that this guy's mobile," said California Highway Patrol Lt. Les Bishop. "They watched him get out and walk away."
The CHP said they brought in sheriff's deputies to help and the fire department set up lights, but they found nothing.
"It was a diligent, thorough search," said Bishop. "It wasn't just 45 minutes of standing around. It was looking around through the brush."
Detectives received a detailed location of where the crash occurred on Tuesday and went back to the scene on a hunch. Officers found the man in a wooded area between the on- and off-ramps of the freeway. Police said that he had not been visible from the road.
The man was found right off the Hellyer Avenue ramp to Highway 101 in south San Jose. It is a thicket of brush and trees where thousands of cars drive by every day, but no one stops.
Although alive, the man was unresponsive and was taken to Regional Medical Center.
San Jose police Officer Jose Garcia said police believe the man had been at the site since his car had crashed and was towed by the California Highway Patrol.
"They found the victim apparently in an area that was secluded enough with shade and just completely blocked from all view from anywhere on the roadway," said Garcia.
KTVU learned that the victim, Michael Sanchez of San Jose, was in critical but stable condition Wednesday night at Regional Medical Center in San Jose.
Garcia said he could not give more information about the man's injuries, nor how or why he crawled out of his car into an area that was obscured from site.
Garcia said Sanchez was unconscious and had no food or water for a week, yet was still alive
"The word is miraculous," said Garcia. "The fact that this individual survived for seven days."
KTVU was told that one of the police officers who found Sanchez stayed home Wednesday, infected with poison ivy.
How Sanchez survived will have to wait until he recovers and tells his story.
