The City of Oakland, California proposes to use $1,225,000.00 of Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant funding for their proposed Transportation Energy Conservation Project. The Transportation Project includes two components: the Oakland Airport Intelligent Transportation System Project and the Citywide Bikeway Improvements Project, however, only the Citywide Bikeway improvements are discussed as the Oakland Airport Project has already been reviewed by the Department of Energy and is categorically excluded from further National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review. This project will implement physical improvements on existing roadways to establish new bikeways or improve existing bikeways. These improvements consist of signage, striping, and traffic signal actuation that facilitate bicycle access between neighborhoods, transit stations, and the central business district.
