PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Global Opportunities at the Port of Oakland (GoPort) Program, a package of landside transportation improvements within and near the Port, is being proposed for implementation by the Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC), in collaboration with the City of Oakland and the Port of Oakland (Port). To improve the shared pedestrian/bicycle pathway and realign and reconstruct the existing railroad underpass and multi-use path along 7th Street between west of I-880 and Maritime Street to increase vertical and horizontal clearances for trucks to current standards, the 7th Street Grade Separation East Project is a key component of the GoPort program. The goal of this project is to rebuild and modernize a vital access point to the Port of Oakland to provide effective multimodal landside access and infrastructure improvements to support ongoing and anticipated Port operations, which are essential to the local, regional, state, and national economies.
