I would be interested in knowing how a small, lightly traveled street in Crocker Highlands (Underhills Road) merited a complete paving two years ago. At the time this street was paved it was not even close to the extreme disrepair in which we find Chabot Road today.

Good news, it looks like the contract that the Chabot Rd street paving is on was approved and is very likely to be completed this year in 2014! This will include the entire stretch of road from College Ave to Golden Gate Ave, and bicycle shared-lane markings will be painted once the paving is complete.
On top of that Oakland has initiated a "pothole blitz" with the intention of filling 2,500 potholes around the city, starting in East Oakland and then moving northwest throughout the next several months. I'm not sure which project will get to Chabot first, but at least there is a lot of movement in a positive direction.
paintrich: Broadway between 38th and Broadway Terrace is also going to be repaved and striped with bike lanes (by this October) and Shafter is getting resurfaced using some discretionary funds from District 1 Councilperson Dan Kalb's office

LB: I know it's hard to wait but the paving work on Chabot Rd is still planned to take place before the end of 2014. Most paving work usually does end up taking place at the very end of the year, as the city works with the contractors to not start their work until all scheduled utility projects have been completed. Otherwise the utility workers end up just cutting into the newly paved street.
The pothole blitz did take place over the summer, by the way, and a majority of the holes that I had reported on other streets were taken care of at that time.
