Bike Hayward

Bike Hayward calls for community support by attending the upcoming city council meeting this Tuesday evening. There is a work session on the agenda where downtown redesign will be discussed.

Has the one-way loop negatively impacted your downtown experience?

Do you want to enjoy a downtown that is safe to walk, bike, drive and move around in the future?

You can attend the meeting in-person or virtually. Let’s make our presence and voices heard!

Pedestrian safety in the Hayward and Eden Area is a primary concern for us at Bike Hayward. Yesterday, Bike Hayward joined residents and Alameda County Transportation Commission’s walk audit of the Grove Way neighborhood to experience and give feedback, traveling Grove Way from Carlos Bee park in Castro Valley to Foothill Blvd in Hayward. The testimony will be used to inform the design of safety upgrades for this treacherous corridor. Here’s to a more walkable and livable Eden Area!
