The Bay Bridge is probably one of the busiest bridges in the country during normal work days. So labor day weekend is the best time to do it. And everything I have heard (and it's on the local news every night) is the issue was not the steel from China but the bolts made in the USA.
You missed the union placed billboards complaining about the fact the bridge was fabricated in China then; of course, they disappeared when the bolts failed.
Yes, the bolts that shattered was made in the good ol' USA, to Caltrans specs.. which was then found to be totally wrong, after installation.
