Corridor Map

Selecting a Design

Over the course of three community meetings, we have listened to your concerns, worked with you to envision a better corridor with improved safety and access, and presented design alternatives that reflect your visions and incorporate physical and policy constraints. After presenting the design alternatives, we asked for your participation in an online survey, which was open from July 28 through August 20, 2010.  The survey results, along with feedback received at the meetings and online, are now being used to guide the design team in finalizing an alternative that will best reflect the community’s visions and safety concerns.  The proposed preferred design concept will be presented at the community meeting on October 7, 2010 from 7 to 9 p.m.  This meeting will be held at the Gathering Hall, Lorry I. Lokey Graduate School of Business, Mills College.

Summaries and exhibits from the July 28th community meeting and the survey results can be reviewed by clicking on the links below.

Summary of Alternatives

Although the survey is now closed, we invite you to share your ideas and concerns by filling out the online feedback form and attending the next meeting.

Improving Transportation In Our Neighborhoods

As MacArthur Boulevard curves along between Seminary and High Street, there are challenges to walking, riding, crossing or otherwise attempting to use the sidewalks, paths and crosswalks.

The City of Oakland has launched a planning effort to make travel along this corridor easier, safer and inviting among the nearby neighborhoods.

What is LAMMPS?
LAMMPS is a community-driven, community-based plan designed to improve transportation conditions along MacArthur Boulevard between High Street and Seminary Avenue. This project presents an opportunity for residents, business owners, students, and youth to share their concerns and ideas about making the MacArthur corridor safe and more inviting and to become part of the planning.

This plan could help to make the MacArthur corridor safer, easier to navigate, and more attractive. Through a series of community meetings and other points of community engagement, you can give the project planners your thoughts and opinions. Your input is extremely important. Through participation, you and your neighbors can share ideas that will help improve travel where you reside. Make known your preferences and ideas on neighborhood amenities to enhance your area.
