Community-Based Transportation Plan
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.
Preferred Concept Plan
Over the course of four community meetings, we have worked with you to envision a better corridor with improved safety and access, listened to your concerns, and presented design alternatives that reflect your visions and incorporate physical and policy constraints. On July 28, 2010, two design alternatives were presented to the community. After this meeting, we asked for your participation in an online survey that was open from July 28 through August 20, 2010. Feedback received through the survey, during the community meetings, online, and via telephone was used to guide the design team in finalizing a preferred concept plan that would best reflect the community’s visions and safety concerns. This preferred concept plan was then presented to the community on October 7, 2010. The final concept plan report and exhibits from the October 7, 2010 meeting can be viewed through the links below.
