The Richmond–San Rafael Bridge extends across San Pablo Bay, entering Richmond just to the north of Point Richmond. The bridge is the origin of the term rollercoaster span, due to its curves, bumps, and appearance, which have also earned the bridge the nickname of the rollercoaster bridge. It was completed in 1957, and connects Contra Costa County with Marin County. Automobiles are charged a $6 toll in the westbound (towards Marin) direction only.
