ICM Pioneer Sites–Oakland, California

Interstate 880 in Oakland hosts major arterials that carry very large volumes of both freight and commuter traffic. This ICM corridor includes a coliseum/sports arena, port and airport and is home to a major population center. The area is fortunate to have a first-rate transit system-the Bay Area Rapid Transit System (BART), multiple bus routes, and a ferry that connects East Bay with San Francisco.

The Oakland Pioneer Site team designing their ICM approach to make existing highway, arterials, and rail and bus transit networks, which are operated by separate agencies, function as an integrated transportation system. Oakland's ICM approach focuses on strategies to balance real time demand and supply.

More on the Oakland, California ICM Corridor:

The Oakland, California application proposed I-880 from SR 237 in the south to I-580/I-80 in the north as their corridor. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission and Caltrans District 4 were presented as the lead agencies, accompanied by the Alameda County Congestion Management Agency and Alameda County Transit. In addition to the expected freeway and arterial capabilities, the corridor includes HOV, tolling, express bus, bus rapid transit (BRT), commuter rail, and heavy rail.
