The City of Oakland Public Works Department has received this issue. It is registered as service request #598125. 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.

This is a sewer lateral replacement. What the sewer lateral contractor forgot to pave it. Where is code enforcement they signed off on the permit. Fine the sleazy plumbing contractor and make them fix it not the tax payers.
Approximately 4" deep and 18" x 18". This was reported 4 months ago. Four months and NOTHING has been done. Middle of the road, it causes drivers to swerve to avoid it, putting pedestrians and other drivers in harms way. I suggest Oakland DPW get on this before someone gets hurt, especially since it was"acknowledged" four months ago.
To those of you are impacted by this crater and road hazard contact code enforcement and ask why they allowed this to happen and when are they going to cite the plumbing company that left this mess and have them fix it correctly. People can fill out damage forms City attorney's office or online.
