Hayward, the "Heart of the Bay," is one of the largest cities in the East Bay, with about 160,000 residents between Oakland and Fremont. Its central location at the eastern end of the San Mateo Bridge, one of the Bay Area's largest industrial and logistics districts, and two BART stations make it a major crossroads for commuters and freight.
Billboards here reach heavy traffic on I-880 (the Nimitz Freeway) and I-580, plus SR-92 toward the San Mateo Bridge and SR-238 (Mission Boulevard), along with busy local roads such as Hesperian Boulevard, Tennyson Road, Industrial Parkway, Winton Avenue, Jackson Street, A Street and Foothill Boulevard. Strong placements include Southland Mall and the Hesperian Boulevard retail corridor, downtown Hayward near the BART station, the industrial district along I-880, and routes near Cal State East Bay, Chabot College, St. Rose Hospital and Hayward Executive Airport.
