The blocks of E. 21st Street between 12th Avenue and 14th Avenue contain many large potholes. Potholes continue toward 9th Avenue, but the largest are close to 13th and 14th Avenues.
The City of Oakland Public Works Agency has received this issue. It is registered as service request # 406137. Thank you, in advance, for your patience as we work through a backlog of pothole service requests. Unfortunately the City does not have enough funding to repave all streets in poor condition. With limited funding, our response to resurfacing requests is limited to minor pavement and pothole repairs only. Our Street Maintenance Department will assess your street and determine whether temporary measures might be appropriate. Please understand that this work may be limited to pothole or other minor repairs, and that we have many similar requests. We will do our best to respond in a timely manner. The backlog of streets in Oakland needing pavement currently is $435 million and growing.
At your convenience, please review the following information regarding the City of Oakland Street/Sidewalk Maintenance Program:

Some of the damage should be billed to AC transit. Why did they ever move the bus from 14th to two-way narrow 13th ave. there's no space to legally pull a bus to the curb for pickup/drop off or wheelchair access.
Thank you for your request. According to our system, we already have an open service request at this location. The service request number is 385310. If you would like to check the status of the request, please contact the Public Works Call Center at (510)615-5566 or pwacallcenter@oaklandnet.com.

Yes, E. 21st St. is a real mess between 12th and 14th Avenues!
