South Hayward station is a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station situated near Tennyson Road in Hayward, California. It is served by both the Orange and Green lines.
History
In December 1965, the BART Board officially designated the name "South Hayward" for the station. The station commenced operations on September 11, 1972, as part of BART's initial segment. Although elevator installation faced delays due to a nationwide strike, it was finalized shortly after the station's opening.
Transit-oriented development (TOD) initiatives around the station started in 2015, resulting in two residential buildings with a combined total of 357 units completed by 2017. As of 2024, BART intends to invite developer proposals between 2029 and 2033 for a subsequent phase of TOD.
