Editorials Costly Loss for Hayward Transit Routing
BAY AREA Rapid Transit's blunt rejection of Hayward requests to change routing leaves city and chamber officials with a sour outlook. The finality of the transit report surprised local and state highway officials who hoped Foothill Freeway planning could accommodate a parallel route. Transit officials have dealt a body blow to shifting the Western Pacific alignment, with little expectation of reversal by the rapid transit board. Leaders urge continued pursuit of better transit facilities, warning that ill suited routes harm Hayward and South County's future needs.
