Linear meters excavated:The length of the Fourth Bore, 990 meters, is more than ten times the height of downtown Oakland’s landmark Tribune Tower, at 93 meters.

Volume of Dirt Excavated:With primary tunneling complete, 210,000 cubic meters of dirt have been excavated from the East Bay Hills. That’s equal to 91% of the volume of Contra Costa’s earthen San Pablo Dam, which is made up of 230,000 cubic meters of earth.

Mass of Steel Rebar:When buttressing is complete, there will be 1.6 million kilograms of steel rebar in the Fourth Bore. That’s enough steel to make 1956 average American cars.
