Transit alerts rose from 9 to 16 last week. Road, power and construction have held steady. Water stayed quiet.

Weeks start on Sunday. One thing is counted once per place per day, and something that runs for days counts on the day it started. Brief lane blocks that cleared inside an hour are left out, closures scheduled to run longer than a week are roadworks rather than incidents, an outage counts when it left 10 or more customers without power, and stories about policy or funding are not incidents.

Where San Jose was hit this week

What the map says

Tap a row to see it on the map.

Areas are measured from City Hall in downtown San Jose: within 2 miles is Downtown San Jose, within 8 miles (about where I-280 and the Willow Glen and Berryessa edges run) is that side of San Jose, and beyond that is the metro. An item with no coordinates is counted in the totals but not placed on the map. Corridors come from the road a source named. Interstates are split into the stretch north, south, east or west of downtown San Jose, since one number for a whole interstate hides where the trouble is. Districts are the City of San Jose's own council boundaries, from its GIS: the ten district seats, 1 to 10. Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Milpitas and the rest of the valley have their own councils and no district drawn yet, and are shown on the metro map.
