Improving neighborhood livability, vitality and sustainability by making Oakland a better place to walk and bike

the ongoing story of bike parking & parking meters

Have you noticed how great the weather is this week?  You must be out riding & hoofing it through Oaktown.  Ah, but if you bike, where’s that meter you used to lock up to?

Gone. With only a fraction of the spaces replaced.

Tuesday March 11 there’s an update on the parking kiosks and a piece on bike parking replacement with real locks at Finance & Management committee requested by Ignacio De La Fuente.  You can take a look at the report below (or not), and then email the Mayor, your Council member, and the City Administrator to tell them about

  1. your experience trying to find something to lock up to
  2. that we need at least $75,000 for additional parking racks
  3. more staff to help get this and other high priority projects DONE
