East Oakland Transportation Resource Center

Oakland's Capital Improvement Program (CIP)

Capital projects improve and maintain Oakland’s public buildings and spaces. They can range from building new recreation centers to restoring aging fire stations to repaving streets. Provide critical input during the CIP process to invest in improving our neighborhood structures. When, how, and where this happens depends on you!

East Oakland Mobility Action Plan
The goal of the East Oakland Mobility Action Plan (East Oak MAP) is to work with the East Oakland residents, to identify which transportation routes provide access and opportunity to jobs, education, recreation, and services. The Plan will identify gaps and needs for transit, pedestrian, and bicycle facilities to prioritize transportation projects and identify funding for projects. Key Corridors we are considering include: 14 St, Bancroft Ave, 73rd Ave, and Hegenberger Rd

Oakland Slow Streets

Have you seen cones and barricades closing streets to through traffic? Since April, the Slow Streets Program has been installing “soft closures" using cones, barriers, and signs so that people can more comfortably use these low-traffic streets for physically distant walking, wheelchair rolling, jogging, biking, roller skating, scootering, and more.
In May the City added the Slow Streets: Essential Places approach the program, making intersection improvements to support residents’ safe access to essential services such as grocery stores, food distribution sites and COVID-19 test sites.

Flex Streets

The City of Oakland will waive all fees and is streamlining permitting for business’ use of public rights-of-way, including sidewalks and parking lanes, to align with Alameda County’s updated Shelter-in-Place Order allowing outdoor dining and other merchant activities, under a new program called Flex Streets.
