The West Oakland Truck Management Plan (TMP) is an action-based plan designed to reduce the effects of transport trucks on local streets in West Oakland. The TMP was approved by the City and the Port in April, 2019. When the TMP is implemented, the West Oakland community should experience fewer trucks driving or parking where they should not be, improved safety for people walking, biking, and driving in West Oakland, and an overall improvement in the quality of life for people living and working in West Oakland.
Implementation of the Truck Management Plan started in July 2019 and actions underway include development of draft proposals for parking changes, and updates to the truck route network, among other actions. A Draft Summary of Community Comments from the 2020 public engagement is now available.
The Frontage Road study will explore the consequences of formalizing Frontage Rd. as a truck route.
