A long-awaited project to ease congestion in downtown Oakland and Alameda is inching forward, with construction expected to begin in 2023.
The Oakland Alameda Access Project will reconfigure and widen ramps for Interstate 880, create more direct access to the freeway, and change part of Madison Street to two-way travel, among other improvements. The plan hopes to ease congestion and make it easier for commuters to navigate the connections between Oakland, Alameda, and the interstate.
