D Street Traffic Calming & Implementation
The D Street Traffic Calming and Implementation Project spans 0.75 miles of D Street between 2nd Street and the city limits.
This section of D Street connects Fairview to downtown Hayward, serving as an important corridor for neighborhoods and schools. In response to concerns expressed by the community, staff will conduct community outreach to identify opportunities to improve pedestrian and bike safety, as well as reduce excessive vehicle speeds, along the D Street corridor.
Draft Concept Plan:
The proposed Draft Concept Plan for the D Street Traffic Calming and Implementation Project includes several traffic calming measures and multimodal enhancements.
The proposed traffic calming measures include:
- Narrowing the travel lanes

- Reassigning the thru and turn lanes at 2nd Street
- High-visibility crosswalks
- Curb extensions or bulbouts
- Refresh existing street markings
