Strange confluence of dates
The article reads "When I-205 opened in December 1970, it replaced 11th Street, which passed through downtown Tracy, as part of the primary all-land connection between the Bay Area and Sacramento until the Carquinez Bridge opened in 1927, and carried the Lincoln Highway and later U.S. Route 50."
I'm guessing some content dropped out. When...1970...until...1927 doesn't make sense, plus the Carquinez Bridge would not be an all-land connection.
I'm guessing this is saying that 11th Street, as part of a land-based connection between Bay Area and Sacramento, was part of the primary such connection before the opening of Carquinez Bridge opened in 1927, and that subsequently, in December 1970, I-205 largely replaced 11th Street for remaining users of the land connection.
That said, I'm not able to parse out from the rest of the article whether that is actually the case, nor are there in-line citations I can use to figure out what this is trying to say. The sentence might benefit from being broken up into two or three sentences by someone who knows the full story.
