In 2018, contractors Shimmick Construction Company and Danny’s Construction Company, referred to as SDJV in court filings, were supposed to begin work updating decades-old maintenance and inspection platforms, replacing handrails and adding wind fairing as well as suicide deterrence nets to the bridge. But they say the project as it was originally drawn up by the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District was flawed, and that the district"concealed significant information ...

Last year, one of SDJV's subcontractors, Vigor Works LLC, sued SDJV over money owed from the project, and SDJV has since countersued. In recent court filings, the contractors are pinning the blame for the project's delays and overruns on the district, and have asked a judge for permission to sue the district, too.
