SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — Freeway congestion in the Bay Area has hit a new record, according to Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC).
The amount of delays related to traffic congestion have gone up nearly 10-percent in the last year.

Here’s MTC’s list of the top ten worst Bay Area commutes:
- Northbound U.S. 101 and eastbound Interstate 80 from the I-280 interchange in San Francisco to the Bay Bridge’s Yerba Buena Island Tunnel
- Westbound I-80 from State Route 4 in Hercules to Fremont St. in San Francisco
