SPUR Supports Creation of Department of Transportation and Infrastructure in Oakland

Letter supporting staff proposal to create integrated Department of Transportation and Infrastructure in the City of Oakland.

Advocacy Letter

SPUR supports staff's proposal to create a Department of Transportation and Infrastructure in the City of Oakland. We think a well-run Department of Transportation is essential to the success of a 21st century Oakland. While including infrastructure is reasonable and may be effective, there should be assurance that transportation is the priority for this new department in 2016-17.
