Temporary change to access to Hayward Station begins 2/10/14

As part of our systemwide Earthquake Safety Program, work has begun to strengthen structures at the Hayward Station to better withstand future earthquakes. Beginning the week of February 10, 2014 a temporary ramp will be installed to provide access for persons with disabilities into the Hayward Station. The existing ramp will be temporarily closed while the contractor performs retrofits on nearby structures. Please proceed around construction areas with caution and watch for signs with safety information and other notices. You can also expect temporary construction-related noise, dust, and traffic impacts. We will monitor noise and dust and work to minimize any inconveniences. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this work. The work should be completed by fall of 2014.
 
Similar work to strengthen San Leandro, South Hayward and Fremont stations is currently underway and is expected to be complete by early 2015. Earthquake Safety Program construction will be underway at various locations throughout the BART system over the next five years, and is expected to be complete by the end of 2018. As always, safety is BART’s top priority. Our aim is to strengthen BART as quickly as possible, while maintaining BART service.
