Thank you for your request to improve the safety and efficiency of Alameda’s transportation system.

Requests for many transportation issues, including stop signs, curb painting, and traffic calming measures, typically require 8-12 weeks to complete before staff can develop a recommendation. These requests involve review of current plans and policies, compilation of accident and/or other history, coordinating with Alameda Police and other stakeholders, outreach to residents or others who may be affected by the proposed change, on-site data collection and analysis, and sometimes consultation with outside experts.

I will follow up with you about your request when your request is at the top of the queue. Unfortunately, due to limited funding, there is a backlog of these requests and they are being handled in the order of receipt. Due to that backlog, some requests may take six months to a year to complete the analysis and recommendation.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

A controlled intersection in all four directions would be safest

Anything that can be done to calm the traffic here would be much appreciated. Drivers are very aggressive on this section of Oak, even with the crosswalk.

Yes, I agree that a 4 way stop sign at Oak and San Antonio would improve safety.

Concur

Agree...I live near this corner, and it is very dangerous. I have seen multiple pedestrians almost get hit, and I have seen several car accidents at this intersection.

Thank you for submitting your request to the City of Alameda Public Works Department. We are currently developing a new process for handling traffic calming requests. Each request will be scored based on various quantitative and qualitative traffic related criteria. The requests with the highest scores will then be added to a list (to be reviewed for the next 1-2 fiscal years). Requests that are not selected will remain in the pool for consideration at a later time. We will add your request to the pool so that it may go through the selection process. We are now closing this step of the process.
