The traffic signal improvement project on Jackson Street, originally scheduled to begin yesterday, has been postponed. The City of Hayward has set a new start date of July 1 for the upgrades, which are expected to continue until August 14. This project aims to enhance several intersections along Jackson Street and its nearby roads, including Amador Street, Cypress Avenue, Soto Road, Grand Street, Winton Avenue, and Meek and Silva avenues.

During this period, travelers can expect temporary delays due to lane closures and the temporary loss of vehicle detection, which are necessary to install new video detection cameras and upgrade traffic control boxes. These improvements are designed to ameliorate traffic flow and reduce congestion in the area, but some inconvenience may be inevitable in the short term. Residents and drivers must plan their commutes accordingly to accommodate the anticipated delays.

For those looking for more details about the traffic signal enhancement project, the City of Hayward provides a resource on its website. Concerned community members interested in staying updated or expressing their inquiries can visit the project page or contact the City’s Traffic Division directly.

Assistant Civil Engineer Kevin Yoshiki of the City of Hayward Traffic Division is available for contact and ready to address any questions or comments via email at [email protected] or over the phone by calling (510) 583-4760.
