Description
hey there! I am one of many people with kids who lives here on Park Street. It is a busy place to live. We love it. We have a VERY hard time crossing the street to get to our friends/neighbors on Clinton Ave. We have almost been hit on numerous occasions.
Best case scenarios listed in order of preference:
1. new cross walk with blinking lights!
2. big signs, yellow crosswalk paddles and new paint job on street
3. big signs and new paint job on street.
thank you so much. really would love it.

Thank you for your request to help make Alameda’s transportation infrastructure as safe and efficient as possible. Your suggestion will be included in the annual review of locations where traffic calming measures may be implemented. Public Works, Alameda Police, and the City’s Transportation Planning Unit prioritize improvements based a location’s history of collisions, police citations, its relationship with existing transportation plans and improvements, cost of the improvement given budget constraints, and suggestions from members of the public, such as yours. Please find more information about the locations and improvements occurring in 2020 here:
