Gant Bridge is a road bridge spanning San Fierro Bay, connecting San Fierro to Bayside. It is modeled after the Golden Gate in San Francisco, but it is shorter and rarely bathed in fog. Like the Golden Gate Bridge, Gant Bridge is a suspension bridge supported by two pillars and painted International Orange. Other similarities include a toll plaza on the San Fierro side, and a large steel latticework structure supported by concrete, built into the hillside, providing the anchorage on the San Fierro side.
