HAYWARD EAST BAY GREENWAY PLAN

The East Bay Greenway is a planned, 30-mile facility connecting from Oakland to Fremont, linking between BART stations with a series of safe bikeways for users of all ages and abilities.

The project manager Alameda CTC is asking for input on the alignment through Hayward, which unfortunately has been moved away from Mission Blvd and onto side streets. This reduces the opportunity via this project to address long-standing and serious safety and access issues on Mission Blvd itself.

We encourage you to complete the survey about the side streets alignment, comment that continuous and physically separated bikeways are needed throughout the East Bay Greenway, and comment that the Mission Blvd alignment needs to be revisitied.

Click below to complete the survey (responses due by May 31, 2024)
