potholes Archived

1901-1999 High St Alameda, CA 94501, USA - Alameda

Pretty gnarly potholes throughout the intersection of Fernside and High, but the worst is the left turn from eastbound Fernside to northbound High (toward to bridge).

Entire intersection has been repaved, and a very nice repaving job at that. Thank you!

I called this in to the County of Alameda as this area is part of the State Highway and under their jurisdiction. They will send someone out to investigate and remove.

Sincerely,

Potholes at out-of-service train tracks Archived

2681-2693 Blanding Ave Alameda, CA 94501, USA - Alameda

The railroad tracks along Tilden Avenue connecting to the out-of-service Fruitvale rail bridge where they cross Blanding Avenue look like they were installed in the Roosevelt administration, and haven't been touched since the railroad went out of service. The problem is potholes cause by the wooden planks between the rails being worked loose. It is a major traffic obstacle.

This has become a much busier intersection with the nearby shopping center, not to mention those taking a shortcut from High Street to Park Street. In peak hours, it is not uncommon to see block-long backups on Blanding (which back up further into the Nob Hill parking lot) which wouldn't be so bad if drivers didn't have to slow to 5 mph to enter the intersection to avoid damaging their cars!

This intersection is definitely affecting car traffic as people slow or swerve to avoid damaging their cars, but just imagine crossing it on a bike, as many do every day. It's a death trap!

When biking from Oakland back over the Fruitvale bridge and trying to get to Fernside you're faced with crossing rapid car traffic on Tilden for a left turn, or you dogleg on Blanding and u-turn to cross to Fernside, which puts you in shopping center traffic, bus zones, and then the death-trap railroad crossing -- nice.

Is the city waiting for a serious injury here, or what? It's been bad for a long time, and getting worse. Sticking some asphalt on the decaying railroad ties hasn't really improved the situation. Hoping something can be done....
