Yes the 4th lane on I-680 South has been completed a few months back.
But...I got screwed by not quite knowing the law. One MUST have a Fastrak transponder when using these pay lanes for single occupant vehicles. Cost me $500 even though I had transponders registered to me (at home) and the license plates have been registered for the bridge tolls. A stupid 'fine print' rule to make money. The cop told me this was a fixit ticket and perhaps I did not act on time.
I agree with San Ramon, probably the highest density of white collar residents of any suburb I have visited. Their new City Center and park and recreation complex will be the envy of any township. We don't regtert moving away (only 0.9 miles from the old house) since the population got very large and extensive development.
