Map of Key Transportation Strategies as part of the General Plan Update

At the March 19, 2026 BPAC meeting, Members of the General Plan Update team in Oakland’s Planning and Building Department, will present on the recently released Draft Land Use Framework. The Draft Land Use Framework for Oakland’s General Plan Update connects the community’s vision for the city with updates to topics like land use, transportation, parks and open space, and public facilities. It explains how we can meet community priorities, such as adding more housing and services near transit and jobs, taking better care of parks and open spaces, making streets safer, and improving public transit.

The Draft Framework builds on the community’s preferred Option, “City of Neighborhoods,” by encouraging walkable, mixed-use neighborhood centers with housing, services, transit access, and community spaces across the Town. It also includes top ideas from other Options, like creating a network of greenways to connect neighborhoods and improving access to the waterfront.
