Port of Oakland Rips Out Protected Bike Lane on Embarcadero
Correction, 3/27 - the headline of an earlier version of this story indicated that "Oakland" ripped out the bike lane. Streetsblog spoke directly with the man pictured in the lead image who identified himself and his crew as independent contractors working for "the city."

While Port operations are separate from the city bureaucracy, the Port's Commissioners are appointed by the mayor and the Oakland City Councilmembers (for four-year terms).
