HERCULES, CA SLIP AND FALL, PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEYS
Hercules was previously a very small bedroom community in Contra Costa County, but has grown rapidly over the years. It has a population of 24,776 as of the 2006 estimated census and is located along the I-80 in Contra Costa County. It is located near San Francisco and Oakland, which allows its residents to commute to the cities during the day, but reside in Hercules. The city is also surrounded by Pinole, Rodeo and Martinez. In 2000, Hercules made a big push to become a transit-oriented, pedestrian-friendly and mixed-use town. This means that there are more transit options, such as Amtrak or ferry service, and more of a centralized feel in which residents may have the benefits of big city living while in a smaller homey town.
With so much construction occurring since 2000, there might be risks to pedestrians along the road or the sidewalk. Depending on the circumstances in each case, people injured in city construction zones may be able to obtain compensation from the city for not keeping the area safe, or being negligent in their duties.
