Excerpt:

Traffic is moving fast and freely. You glance down at your phone—just for a second—and then a warning tone alerts you to slam on the brakes. When you look up, you see the rear of the car you nearly plowed into.

That's the best-case scenario for new vehicle communication technologies that the U.S. Department of Transportation and eight automakers tested in Alameda, California, last week during the last six clinics designed to discover how ordinary drivers from across the United States react to cars that can talk to each other via Wi-Fi and warn drivers of impending collisions.

Excerpt:

On Sunday, November 11, Dutra Dredging wrapped up five weeks of maintenance dredging in the channel leading to the Alameda Point docks. This channel is on the south side of Alameda Point where the maritime ships and USS Hornet are docked. Half of the dredge soil went to the in-bay disposal site at Alcatraz. The other half, unfortunately, was towed 50 miles out into the ocean—past the Farallon Islands—for disposal at a federally approved disposal site. A multi-agency effort to divert dredge material to beneficial reuse in the Bay and Delta proved ineffective in this case.

Initial Findings

Excerpt:

The Broadway/Jackson project will restore regional access to Interstate 880 that has
been restricted since the Loma Prieta earthquake , as well as address access needs for
redevelopment of the former Naval Air Station at Alameda Point. The project also
involves the construction of a Bus Rapid Transit improvement from Alameda Point to
the 12th Street BART Station, with a goal of providing ten-minute headways.
Circulation and access improvements to Oakland Chinatown , Jack London Square, and
Alameda, as well as improved connections between I-880 and the Posey and Webster
