Oakland "Top Ten" Monthly Pothole Reports
In 2012 we developed an agreement with the City of Oakland to improve bike safety by prioritizing ten potholes every month for repair, based on a list we sent to them.
Since then, over 1000 potholes have been filled as a result of this partnership, in addition to many thousands more that Oakland has filled proactively.
We re-initiated this partnership in 2024, and started tracking the locations beginning in September 2024 via the map below.
To have your Oakland pothole reports considered for this list, send them in using the free SeeClickFix app or website and include the word “bike” or “bicycle” in the report description so it will be flagged for us.
Use the hazard reporting guidelines listed above to help city crews find and address your issue.
Ten additional reports will be sent to Oakland staff every month.
