I believe this obstruction is actually in Berkeley. It is about 20 yards past the border in Berkeley.

Dear Sir or Madam,

Thank you for contacting the Department of Public Works regarding this matter. However additional information is needed before your request can be processed. The address, Tunnel Road, is not a complete address. Please provide a complete address or the 2 closest cross streets. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

There is no street address because there are no home nearby. The location is on the east side of Tunnel road about 20 yards north of the Berkeley-Oakland boarder. The location is in Berkeley. That information is sufficient to find it.

The City of Oakland Public Works Department has referred this issue to BERKELEY, PUBLIC WORKS. Please contact that department to follow-up (see "Other Helpful Links" at http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/Connect/ReportaProblem/index.htm#Links).

Berkeley public works refused to deal with this issue. Caltrans finally fixed it.
