5 Constructed
First Neighborhood Greenway on Pacific Avenue
In November 2025, the City completed construction of the first full segment of a Neighborhood Greenway along Pacific Avenue, from Oak to Lafayette Streets. Improvements include speed humps, new stop signs, painted curb extensions, new crosswalk and bikeway markings, and a neighborhood traffic circle at Chestnut Avenue. In 2026, the City will use community input and evaluation of the pilot segment to finalize designs for the Slow Street segments on Versailles Avenue, San Jose Avenue and the remainder of Pacific Avenue, and construct these segments.

Launched
Citywide Mobile
Parking Payment
System
The City modernized its parking system by
launching mobile payments at parking meters and
surface lots citywide. The City also started mid-
week paid parking at Harbor Bay Ferry Terminal to
open up parking spaces on the busiest days and
to offset costs for a new security guard. Seaplane
Lagoon Ferry Terminal security and paid parking
began in February 2026.
Repaired Sidewalks at 8,000
Locations
The City’s Sidewalk Repair Program launched a
new effort allowing homeowners to partner with
Public Works to repair sidewalks in front of their
homes. In 2025, the program made repairs at over
8,000 locations, replacing 36,400 square feet of
sidewalk and eliminating 7,600 trip hazards. The
program continues each year to maintain safe and
accessible sidewalks in Alameda.
Transportation 2025 Annual Report & 2026 Work Plan DRAFT March 17, 2026, p. 5 Held Successful Alameda Bike
Festival
In April 2025, the City held the annual Alameda
Bike Festival, this year at Paden Elementary
School, in partnership with the Alameda County
Safe Routes to School Program. The event drew
hundreds of participants for a fun day of activities
including free bike repairs, helmet fitting and
giveaways, bike rodeo education classes, cargo
and electric bike test rides, food trucks, music and
more. In 2026, the Bike Festival will be held on
May 2 at Ruby Bridges Elementary.

Constructed Alameda’s First Roundabouts on Central Avenue Throughout 2025, the City made major progress on constructing the Central Avenue Safety Project, including roundabouts, bikeways, new crosswalks, roadway reconfigurations, and pavement resurfacing. Thanks to the patience and cooperation from residents and visitors, the project is ahead of schedule and on track for completion in Spring 2026. Two roundabouts are nearly complete as of early 2026, with upgraded lighting to come. When complete, the Central Avenue project will improve safety for all street users and reduce vehicle delays. Roundabouts reduce the types of crashes where people are seriously hurt or killed by up to 78 percent compared to signalized intersections.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN
202
6 The year ahead will be a busy one for transportation project construction in Alameda. When complete, these projects represent major investment in safety and quality of life for residents and visitors in Alameda. The City recognizes the challenges of detours and lane closures during construction. Find the latest information on traffic changes via up-to-date websites and project email lists. Thank you for your patience as Alameda invests in safer, more sustainable infrastructure.
Completion of The Cross Alameda Trail
The Cross Alameda Trail will be complete by the end of 2026, with the construction of the final two segments at the Clement Avenue Extension (Ohlone Ave to Grand Street) and the Clement Avenue/Tilden Way Project. This premiere cross-town, low-stress four-mile walking and bicycling corridor connecting the island’s east side to the west was first envisioned in the 1991 General Plan. In 2017, the first segment opened on Clement Avenue from Entrance Road to Ohlone Way. Since then, six more segments have been completed including City-led parks, on- street separated bikeways, and segments constructed with new development. Now the full Cross Alameda Trail is on track for completion this year!

Avenue/Tilden Way Project.
Repaving and Safety
Improvements
Each year, the Pavement Program works to
include safety and multi-modal transportation
improvements with pavement. In 2026, the
program will include the San Jose Avenue
Neighborhood Greenway from San Antonio
Avenue/Morton Street to Oak Street and the
Fernside Boulevard near-term design from Tilden
Way to High Street.

Transportation 2025 Annual Report & 2026 Work Plan DRAFT March 17, 2026, p. 7 New Bike Racks Near
Businesses
Thanks to a Transportation Fund for Clean Air
grant from the Alameda CTC, the City will begin
installing 100 new bike racks in 2026. Racks will be
placed near community destinations and
businesses, focusing on areas with high
community requests such as Alameda’s “station”
business districts along Encinal and Lincoln
Avenues.
Oakland
Alameda Access
Project to Begin Construction
Led by the Alameda CTC and constructed by
Caltrans, the Oakland Alameda Access Project will
make freeway access easier, improve safety in
Oakland Chinatown and Downtown, and add a
new 4-foot pathway for people walking and biking
in the Webster Tube.
Construction is set to begin in spring 2026 and
last approximately 3.5 years. During much of this
time, travelers can expect delays through the
Webster and Posey Tubes, as well as limited tube
closures. The Oakland Alameda Water Shuttle will
operate on Tuesdays and for longer weekend
hours during the Oakland Alameda Access Project
Tube construction periods thanks to funding from
Alameda CTC. To stay updated on construction
status, closures, and reroutes, sign up for Caltrans
project updates.

STAFFING, FUNDING, AND GRANT
PRIORITIES
Funding and Staffing Resources
Alameda’s transportation work is funded by a variety of sources. The most significant and stable sources have been from Alameda County Measures B and BB transportation sales taxes and the Vehicle Registration Fee (VRF).
The tax authorization for Measure B expired in 2022 after 20 years and remaining funds have been expended as of the end of Fiscal Year 24/25. These funding sources are combined with competitive grants and General Funds to pay for maintenance, capital projects, programs, and staffing.
In June 2025, the City’s overall Measure B, Measure BB, and VRF fund balance was $ 5.2 million. The City programmed use of these funds via the FY 2025-2027 Capital Budget, including for major projects that are under or will begin construction in 2026.
Measures B, BB, and VRF Fund Status for Fiscal Year 24/25, ending June 30, 2025 Fund Starting Balance Revenue Expenditure Balance
Measure B $1,066,060 $61,830* $1,127,890 $ -
Measure BB $9,042,809 $6,487,776 $10,249,794 $5,280,791 Vehicle Registration Fee $633,999 $351,544 $1,105,665 $(120,123)** Total $10,742,868 $6,901,150 $12,483,349 $5,160,668
* Revenue summary includes interest and adjustments. There is no remaining Measure B revenue or fund balance. **Planned expenditures in Fiscal Year 25/26 are reduced to account for negative fund starting balance.

Transportation 2025 Annual Report & 2026 Work Plan DRAFT March 17, 2026, p. 22 2025 Grant Application Priorities
To conserve staff resources and focus on adopted plan goals, staff identified possible projects and programs for grant funding and scored them to create a list of priority projects for grant proposals in 2025. Projects were scored based on how well a project meets each of the adopted General Plan Mobility Element goals, plus whether any funding has been allocated to date. Only the top projects are included on the list. The applications that are ultimately submitted will depend on how well the projects match available funding sources, and lower scoring projects may be submitted if they are a particularly good fit for a funding source.

TRAFFIC FATALITY & INJURY REPORT
This is the fourth annual report on the Vision Zero
Action Plan, which the Alameda City Council
adopted in December 2021. This report covers the
performance metrics outlined in the Plan. For
details on traffic safety and Vision Zero projects
and programs, see the Transportation 2025
Annual Report & 2026 Work Plan.
In 2025, 1 person lost their life, 8 people were
severely injured, and a total of 227 people were
injured in traffic collisions on Alameda streets.
“People of all ages and abilities can
travel safety using any mode, and
traffic deaths and serious injuries
are eliminated by 2035.”
202
5 FATAL AND SEVERE INJURY CRASHES
In 2025, 1 person lost their life and 8 were severely injured in traffic collisions on Alameda streets. Every traffic fatality represents a tragic loss for loved ones and the community, and severe injuries can change a life forever.
After every fatal crash, City staff convene post-collision site visits including transportation planners and engineers with Police Traffic Unit leadership. In 2023, the City launched its Fatal Crash Response program, which includes transparent public information about fatal crashes and installs quick-build infrastructure at the sites of fatal crashes when possible. More information is at www.alamedaca.gov/fatalcrashresponse.
Vision Zero Annual Report March 17, 2026, p. 4 Of the 9 fatal and severe injury collisions in 2025, 6 occurred on High Injury Corridors. A high portion (5) were solo collisions .
Four of the people severely injured were on an electric bicycle (Class 2), scooter, or skateboard, mostly in solo collisions. Note that, according to State guidelines, the severe injury category can include everything from a broken wrist to life -threatening injuries.

CRASH TRENDS OVERVIEW
To help understand change over time, the City tracks collision trends over many years. Because Alameda is a small city with relatively low numbers of deaths and severe injuries, a rolling average analysis helps smooth out noise in the data and identify trends. Each data point in Figure 1 represents the average of that year and four prior years, e.g., the 2014 figure is the average of 2010-2014.
Figure 1: Rolling Five-Year Averages, Traffic Fatalities + Severe Injuries by Mode, 201-2025 Data
STATE
AND
COUNTY COMPARISON
The City’s rates of traffic fatalities and severe injuries are lower than those in the county and state. Recent local trends generally match national ones, with increases in fatal and severe collisions in 2021 and 2022 that are starting to go down again.1

POLICE TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT PRIORITIZATION
Per the Vision Zero Action Plan, the City focuses traffic enforcement on behaviors associated with severe and fatal crashes and along High Injury Corridors. In 2025, the Police Department prioritized traffic enforcement by utilizing Patrol Officers for this when possible, resulting in a significant increase compared to the prior year. • Total moving violation citations and warnings in 2025: 6,316, up 72% from 20242 • Percent along High Injury Corridors: 70%
Traffic Stops by Race
The data below includes the
race/ethnicity as perceived by

STREET SAFETY CONCERN REPORTS
In 2025, community members submitted 411
reports of ongoing traffic safety concerns and
near-miss crashes at locations throughout
Alameda. The City uses the SeeClickFix app to
collect these community reports.
In 2025, staff reviewed Street Safety Concern
reports along relevant corridors when planning
and designing projects; reviewed clusters of recent
Street Safety Concern reports at monthly Vision
Zero Implementation Team meetings; and quoted
reports in grant proposals. An interactive map
showing Street Safety Concern reports is available
via the Vision Zero webpage.
Self-reported data can favor people with
resources and time, but it still gives important
insights about experiences people have on
Alameda’s streets.
2 Numbers do not include citations given by officers from partner agencies as part of PD’s participation in the Alameda County High Impact Traffic Team.

UITY
Measure: Percent of active
transportation improvement projects
installed in equity priority
communities
11% of the 79 intersections that received active
transportation improvements in 2025 were in
equity priority areas. Improvements included new
daylighting, new or upgraded crosswalk markings,
new striped or concrete bulb-outs, and signal
improvements.
0% of the 1.69 miles of roadway that had
bikeway or other corridor improvements added
were in equity priority areas. Multiple corridor
projects are coming to equity priority areas in the
coming years, including the Willie Stargell
Complete Street Project, the Lincoln/Marshall
/Pacific Safety Project, and new Neighborhood
Greenways.
Measure: Percent of programming
and education in equity priority
communities
31% of active transportation programming and
education events and activities took place in
locations or schools in equity priority areas.
This totals 9 (out of 29) events/schools/activities,
and includes the 4 public schools in equity priority
areas that were enrolled in the Countywide Safe
Routes to Schools (SR2S) program in the 2024/25
school year (each of which held numerous events
during the school year), 3 of the bike safety
education classes, and 2 of the outreach events.

CONNECTIVITY AND COMFORT
Measure: Number of intersections
with pedestrian crossing
improvements or upgrades
79 intersections received improvements for
people walking. Improvements included new
daylighting, new or upgraded crosswalk markings,
new striped or concrete bulb-outs, and/or signal
improvements.
Measure: Miles of all bikeways and low
stress bikeways
Alameda added 2.1 miles of bikeways in 2025,
including 1.5 miles of low-stress bikeways, which
include Neighborhood Greenways, shared-use
paths, and separated bike lanes (also known as
“protected bike lanes”).
The City now has 61.3 miles of bikeways, of
which 41% (25.4 miles) are low-stress facilities.

COMMUNITY
Measure:
Number of schools with
active Safe Routes to Schools
programs
All 18 of Alameda’s public schools were enrolled
in the Countywide Safe Routes to School (SR2S)
program1 in the 2024/25 school year. Each school
holds multiple events per year promoting getting
to school safely in a sustainable way, including
walking and biking.
Private schools can access the online resources
provided by the countywide program but cannot
enroll or sign up for services.

that receive bicycle safety education
In the first half of 2025, Nea Community Learning
Center and Edison Elementary participated in the
City-funded bicycle safety education program.
Due to low participation rates, the City did not
renew its contract for 5 th grade bike safety
education in schools, and the program is on hiatus.
Bicycle education is available to schools via the
SR2S program.

Measure:
Number of new or upgraded
bicycle parking facilities
At least 12 bike racks were added with new
development projects, totaling 24 new parking
spaces. All of the City’s 134 parking spaces in
shared-use electronic bike lockers were
maintained, and plans were developed to make
the lockers in the Civic Center Garage more
usable, and to move under-utilized lockers to
spaces where there is more demand. Priority
locations for 100 new racks were identified; these
racks are expected to be installed in 2026. There
are now approximately 2,320 bicycle parking
spaces in 835 racks around the city.
Measure: Number of encouragement
or educational events or campaigns
held to support walking + bicycling
13 events or campaigns were offered, either by
the City, its contractors, or the Countywide SR2S
program. These included the major annual SR2S
events, Bike to Wherever Day in May, the annual
Bike Festival, and 6 bicycle safety education
workshops.
In 2025, bicycle safety education included a
workshop on fixing a flat tire, on-bike and
classroom urban bike commuting basics classes,
and a family cycling workshop.

MODE SHIFT
The ATP includes six performance measures to assess trends in mode shift citywide, since no one measure can provide a complete picture. Data is available for three of these measures at this time, and the overall trend, with the limited available data in 2025, appears to show bicycling and walking modes remaining steady.
Measure: Number of people walking
and bicycling at established count
sites and recently completed capital
project locations
There are three automated counters in Alameda,
each of which continuously counts people walking
and biking on trails. One of these is owned by the
City, while the other two are owned by the East
Bay Regional Park District.
Unfortunately, in 2025, all three counters had gaps
in their bike and/or pedestrian data collected. For
the one period when all counters collected bike
data, from January to March, bicycling increased
5-14% year over year, with the highest increase on
the Cross Alameda Trail.

trails from January 1 to March 31 only

Bicycle and pedestrian counts are conducted at
seven intersections in Alameda every two years by
the Alameda County Transportation Commission
(Alameda CTC) as part of their countywide
performance measures reporting. Counts were last
collected in 2024 and included in last year’s
Performance Measures Report. Since this is an off-
year and no data was collected in 2025, there are
no new trends to report.
In 2025, no before/after count data was available
for new capital projects.
Measure: Percent of people walking
and bicycling to transit
SF Bay Ferry conducted its annual passenger
survey in 2025 which included questions on how
people access the ferry terminal. Across Alameda’s
three ferry terminals, 15% walked all the way to
the terminal and 21% biked or scootered, which is
similar to 2024 data.
Across the entire Bay Area ferry system, Harbor
Bay had the highest percentage (31%) of
respondents who said they biked or scootered to
the terminal.
AC Transit collected on-board passenger data in
2025 but, as of publication, the survey findings are
not yet available.

Active Transportation Plan 2025 Performance Measures Report March 17, 2026, p. 7 Measure: Percent of bicycling and
walking trips to work, and percent of
drive alone trips to work
The latest three-year averages for commute to
work modes show walking steadily increasing,
bicycling remaining flat and driving alone
continuing to decrease. While most trips people
take are not commute-related, this is one more
data point for tracking mode shift over time.

FUTURE YEAR REPORTING
Three of the performance measures in the Active Transportation Plan are not included in this report, since there is not yet new data on which to report. The frequency of reporting on these measures is listed in the Plan’s Table
11. The three are:
• Percent of school-aged children who walk or bicycle to school, at least some of the time • Percent of frequent utilitarian and recreational bicyclists • Percent of frequent utilitarian walkers
