BBR is a group of Oakland businesses, educational institutions and government agencies interested in transportation.
Our goal is to review transportation issues and identify steps to address issues.
In 2002, BBR identified road funding as THE major issue and developed recommendations.
In 2003, BBR developed long-range strategy to implement recommendations.
The Facts:
Oakland's roads are congested and the situation is getting worse.
There is not now - and probably never will be - anywhere near enough money available through traditional sources to fix our congestion problem.
Nobody is going to bail us out of this problem.
The BBR Solution:
If we want to change the situation, we've got to take aggressive action.
We must be willing to raise money locally (to be used locally)
Together, we CAN make a difference. The BBR has compiled a five-pronged approach to raise money to address Oakland's growing congestion problem. Click BBR Solution for details
