The Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District tells the Chronicle that as of November 21, eight suicides have been reported this year, a significant decrease from the yearly average of 30.
Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi expressed gratitude to the advocates for the suicide deterrent nets, stating, 'When we had the dedication, I wish everyone could have heard the families of those who had lost their loved ones. They advocated for this protection.'
Golden Gate Bridge officials are reportedly using the suicide deterrent nets as a model for bridges across the country, indicating a broader impact of this initiative.
