New signs for Robin Williams Tunnel installed

By The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO – A tunnel with rainbow arches that connects the Golden Gate Bridge to greater Marin County has officially become the Robin Williams tunnel.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports (http://bit.ly/1XZUbzl) the new Robin Williams Tunnel signs were installed Monday night.

The tunnel was unofficially known as the Waldo Tunnel.

The California State Senate last year approved a resolution to change the tunnel’s name to honour the late actor and comedian.

Williams grew up and lived in the Bay Area.

The two signs — one for each side of the tunnel — cost $3,000 that was paid for using private donations.
