Pictured above is an example of improvement along Main Street designed to foster a safer multimodal experience for pedestrians, drivers, and bicyclists.

Project Description

The Main Street Complete Streets project will improve pedestrian and bicycle facilities along Main Street to create a safe and friendly environment for multimodal travel in the Downtown Hayward Priority Development Area. Proposed improvements include reducing the roadway from four to two lanes and one center lane for left turns and temporary areas for delivery truck loading and unloading, adding bulb-outs (curb extensions) and bike lanes, improving ADA access with new curb ramps, replacing existing sidewalk, adding decorative streetlights, creating on-street parking opportunities that provide door zone protection for bicyclists, resurfacing and restriping roadways, and creating an attractive, sustainable landscaping buffer along sidewalks.
