pothole Archived

4501 San Leandro St Oakland, CA 94601, USA - Melrose

In the intersection of San Leandro St and 45th Ave. It looks like a previous patch job is crumbling and warping. Also, the interface between the concrete of San Leandro St and the asphalt of 45th Ave (east of SL, on the BART side) is very uneven.

Pothole Archived

International Blvd Oakland, CA - Melrose

This pothole appears to have been cut open for some work in the past. However, the "temporary" patch for the hole has been in place for over a year (time I've seen it around for), and obviously it is not meant to last that long. Heat and use have warped it, making it a hazard for cars and bikes that have to go in the middle of the road to avoid it (since the left edge of the road is usually covered in broken glass along International).

Is this a street? Archived

4693 San Leandro St Oakland, CA 94601 - Melrose

This section of San Leandro is in terrible shape. Completely uneven, full of wholes and with out of commission train tracks. One of the worst I've seen.

  These railroad tracks aren't out of service, they see a handful of trains a week, at least as far as the Sunshine Biscuit factory (80th or 90th Avenue). The tracks continue through downtown Hayward to the Niles District of Fremont, and appear (at least on Google Earth) to connect to a mainline there. I absolutely agree there's more pothole than street, but all of San Leandro Street and East 12th Street needs to be repaved while they're at it.

Section of overpass railing gone Archived

925-1035 High St Oakland, CA 94601, USA - Melrose

For now more than three years, a panel of the S.Leandro St. overpass railing over the High street freeway on/off chute has been missing. A traffic accident took it out long ago leaving a gaping hole over a hefty drop to the embankment below and I haven't seen a DPW truck stop once even to look it over.

  Yikes. I've seen the gap in the guardrail, but never imagined such a grisly origin... It's a bridge over State Highway 77, and therefore owned by California (so DPW isn't allowed to fix it... nor would they be paid to).
  
  It seems, however, that Caltrans started building a freeway, forgot about it, and haven't touched it since. One of the bridges is dated 1949....
  
  The marker is a block away, it should be at 42nd Avenue (which is signed from 880 as "High Street").

  The accident wasn't grisly, just drunken and noisy. ( I saw it living just next door.)
  
  You're right: the marker should be up a block at 42nd ave. specifically. But the State of CA being the owner could well mean that we are s*** out of luck in the short term. We should just fix it ourselves with a public art/welding/anarchist public works project.

  Someone (DPW?) put up some chain-link fencing! I guess, technically, the problem is solved! At least solved enough. Little kids won't fall onto the freeway now.

  The City of Oakland Public Works Agency has received this issue. It is registered as service request # 404586. 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:
