Golden Gate Bridge officials approve median barrier
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Golden Gate Bridge officials have approved the purchase of a $26.5 million steel and concrete median to separate southbound and northbound traffic.
SNIP
Opposing traffic on the bridge is currently separated by a row of yellow plastic tubes. Officials say the median would prevent head-on collisions. It would be moveable as well.

The barrier will be installed during a 52-hour bridge closure sometime next year.
It's about time!
