Thank you for reporting your concerns about street safety in Alameda. In the coming months, Caltrans will add flashing beacons and crosswalk striping improvements at Broadway and San Jose. This is one of six locations that they are doing this along CA Hwy 61.

Your report will help inform the City of Alameda’s work to achieve our Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and severe injuries. We will use street safety reports, including yours, in combination with crash data and equity indicators to prioritize and design street safety investments. This evaluation will generally happen on an annual basis, with some exceptions for clear and pressing trends. Issues that the City deems to be immediate safety concerns will be elevated for quick action.
