In an effort to help create a safer, more mobile Oakland, OTMA is involved in many beneficial programs throughout the region. These activities achieve a variety of positive results including but not limited to promoting public health and safety, strengthening community relations, and increasing commuters’ awareness of alternative modes of travel.
Below are just a few of the programs which OTMA is currently involved:
It's our five year anniversary!
The program is simple: Register here today. On Monday, June 6, 2011 pick up your walking resource kit and get started. Most importantly, the kit includes a pedometer so that you can record your steps in the challenge. Throughout the next eight weeks, begin recording your steps on your profile at walk-challenge.org.
As an incentive to keep walking and logging your steps, we will give away prizes to those who enter at least one step into the system each week. At the end of the program we will award a grand prize to the walker who logs the most steps!
As a result of the ongoing statewide shortfall in transportation funding, Port Authority has proposed a 35% service reduction, fare increase and reductions to ACCESS service. If left unaddressed, the service reduction will go into effect on September 2. For access to all currently available information, visit our Transportation Funding Resource Center.
