Downtown Transportation Management Plan Public Outreach

City of Oakland, as a sub-consultant to Kimley-Horn Associates

The City of Oakland completed construction on five different streetscape improvement and development projects simultaneously in its downtown. As a part of this effort the City prepared Traffic Management Plan (TMP) to identify and mitigate construction-period impacts to downtown residents and businesses. The TMP specifically addressed traffic, parking and business access. As a part of the Kimley-Horn team, DC&E completed an extensive public outreach process to educate and inform downtown stakeholders of the proposed streetscape projects, anticipated construction schedules, and TMP strategies. DC&E held a series of stakeholder meetings with local businesses, solicited input from business owners about issues that should be addressed in the TMP, and conducted two public workshops to explore in detail the draft and final strategies contained in the TMP.
