Description
Shafter is supposed to be a bike route, but it is so bumpy and rough that I and many other bicyclists avoid it. We really have few other alternatives to get to downtown Oakland -- Telegraph doesn't have bike lanes, as you know, and is full of buses. Please consider making resurfacing this street a priority, since it is a designated bike route and will be used much more if it isn't horribly uncomfortable. That will be good news for cyclists and everyone else because it will relieve some of the bike traffic on Telegraph.
