Description
We need speed lumps on Maitland Drive. There are sooo many bikers, and young children riding bikes with their families, due to this pandemic and more cars using this street as a short-cut. Vehicles including empty city buses are not slowing down. It's unsafe. And I am tired of hearing the same old story. Something MUST be done!!!!! I don't care how many duplicate and triplicate messages you see here. It's been over 10 + years and our street is unsafe, unsightly and nothing, nothing has been done worth noting. Not even cross walks or bike lanes for residents living in the neighborhood. Give me a break! Time to WAKE UP City of Alameda and smell another accident brewing!!!!!!

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.
