Finishing the Big Dig A view of the north span of the bridge in early 2000. To the left is the Leverett Connector Bridge and, in the background, the loop ramps connecting I-93 to the Tobin Bridge. On the right, the upper and lower decks of I-93 stretch into the distance. In 2001, workers were forced to tear up a large section of the bridge deck when it was discovered that the concrete had not adhered properly to the steel rebar inside. The glitch made headlines, but was quickly fixed.
