Thank you for reporting your concerns about street safety in Alameda. On April 18, 2023, the City Council endorsed a design concept for the Lincoln/Marshall/Pacific Avenue Safety Improvement Project, which will include major improvements for three miles of this high injury corridor from Alameda Point at Pacific/Central/Main to the East End at Lincoln/Broadway. Next steps include installing safety improvements at Lincoln/Walnut, further design work, and grant writing. We have forwarded your report to project managers.

At Lincoln and 9th, the concept shows the following: flashing beacons at the crosswalk; a road diet to remove the double-hazard threat to people crossing Lincoln; curb bulbouts to shorten crossing distances and maintain visibility at the intersection.
In addition, 9th St is identified as a future Neighborhood Greenway in the Active Transportation Plan (adopted by City Council in December 2022), with prioritization to be implemented by 2025. This would be a traffic-calmed pedestrian- and bicycle-priority street (still open to autos). The crossing improvements at Lincoln would be crucial to this project as well.

Your report will help inform the City of Alameda’s work to achieve our Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and severe injuries. We will use street safety reports, including yours, in combination with crash data and equity indicators to prioritize and design street safety investments. This evaluation will generally happen on an annual basis, with some exceptions for clear and pressing trends. Issues that the City deems to be immediate safety concerns will be elevated for quick action.
