History

The BART Board approved the name "Hayward" in December 1965. [3] A $1.21 million construction contract was awarded in June 1968. [4] The station opened on September 11, 1972. [5] Due to a national strike that year by elevator constructors, elevator construction on the early stations was delayed. Elevators at most of the initial stations, including Hayward, were completed in the months following the opening. [6] [7]
