Growing homeless encampment Acknowledged5457-5481 Claremont Avenue Oakland, California - Fairview ParkThis encampment doubles in size each week. This morning there was a belligerent homeless person "batting" garbage with a stick at people and traffic. It's dangerous. If we do not address this it will grow into a whole homeless village like so many other places throughout Oakland. This is next to a park where children play!

A Modern Day Hooverville Acknowledged600 5th Street Oakland California - Old City-Produce And WaterfrontThis is a modern day Hooverville. This should not be happening on the fringes of one of the richest cities in America. It is an outrage. If the structures of our culture have failed so many people that there's a shanty town on the sidewalk then the city needs to acknowledge the problem and create a space for them to camp that includes services like trash removal and toilets rather than just allowing these sidewalk camps to spread. It's reached the point where pedestrian access is completely blocked and piles of garbage are blocking a whole lane of traffic. These people aren't just the few that fall through the cracks they are an entire community. They are people who have been evicted and lost work and have nowhere to go. This is not normal! I understand that this situation is complicated and hard for the city to deal with but it should not just be ignored. We have been so patient with this but it keeps getting worse and as months pass it's having a very negative effect on our community. We don't want the cops to come in and break it up, it just forms again a day later on the other side of the street. We want these people to be given a place to be, some dignity and basic services.

Traffic Safety (non-emergency) AcknowledgedBeaumont Ave & Macarthur Blvd Oakland, CA, 94602, USA - Lynn-Highland ParkDriving down Beaumont to make a left turn onto HWY 580 Hayward bound A LEFT TURN LIGHT SIGNAL IS URGENTLY NEEDED. Accidents always occur there due to cars being pressured by time. There is not sufficient time to cross over onto HWY 580 Hayward bound because of the high volume of cars on opposite side. Then the high volume traffic perpendicular come on over. This dangerous problem exist in the AM during commute hours 7AM-9AM, 3PM-5PM. However throughout the day it is also dangerous. Accidents have occurred different times and days of the week. It is also not a zone for pedestrians to safely cross over. A large number of residents on that route have to deal with this problem every morning. And every morning I pray that it's not me who gets hit. It's stresses us every morning.

Traffic Safety (non-emergency) Acknowledged946 Macarthur Boulevard Oakland, California - Cleveland HeightsA stop sign in both directions, on MacArthur Blvd, next to the existing bus stops at Alma Ave.
The stops will slow the increasingly fast pace of the cars in the long uninterrupted stretches of MacArthur from both directions, past the school, the pool, two churches, and dozens of residential properties.
The cars GAIN speed, due to the wide open nature of the road, in both directions. The drivers do not even notice they are "opening it up", after climbing hills from each direction. Some drivers do know how fast they go, as this is a cute little way to avoid a portion of 580, and they hit 45-50mph, through our neighborhood and past the school and bus stops.
We have been homeowners here 27 years and this problem truly needs to be addressed. A solution is SO simple and inexpensive. MacArthur at Alma is really a scary intersection for any pedestrian because cars are coming hard from each direction. Most drivers are real good about stopping for pedestrians, but many are not. Why not slow them all down. The responsible ones won't mind at all and the buses are already fairly often stopping there. Please help make our neighborhood safer.
We have a petition signed by neighbors who agree with the need for two additional stop signs at this intersection.
Thank you for your time and interest. -
Traffic Safety (non-emergency) Archived2-38 Hermosa Avenue Oakland, California - Upper RockridgeWe, the parents and staff at Hillcrest, fear another accident (or worse), as drivers on Broadway Terrace rush during the morning commute hours, just as our children are walking to school. Many children cross at Broadway Terrace and Hermosa, and there have been several near misses just this school year alone. The crosswalks there are faded to the point of barely being visible, and because this street is so heavily trafficked, we would love to see additional signage and flashing crosswalk lights. New striping was recently added on the lower side of Broadway Terrace, near the Claremont Country Club, but nothing has been done on the upper side, which is extremely faded and closer to the school. Additionally, striping on Hermosa itself would lend to improved pedestrian safety, as there are no sidewalks on the portion of the road behind the school, and the road is only wide enough for 1.5 cars to pass. Your consideration in this important safety matter is greatly appreciated.

Pothole Archived435 51st Street Oakland, California - TemescalThis massive pothole is in the eastbound lane of 51st Street at/near 435 51st St. It is a major hazard and is extremely dangerous, since cars often swerve to miss it at the last minute. It also is causing damage to cars that do not swerve and instead hit the pothole. Please fill this pothole immediately!

Traffic Safety (non-emergency) AcknowledgedColton Blvd Oakland, California - MontclairThe intersection of Colton & Heartwood is a disaster waiting to happen. At this crossroad, only 1 direction has a stop sign. I have witnessed several near misses lately as traffic traveling up Heartwood makes a left onto Colton (there is no stop sign) and traffic going down Colton continues straight on to Colton (again no stop sign). This needs to be a 4 way stop. With the increased traffic due to the long standing closure of Snake Rd, this is a very dangerous intersection.
