The City will offer group trips only when the <br />participant fee will fully cover the cost of the transportation. <br />Additional Program Changes: <br />1. Hayward -San Leandro Shuttle Connection: <br />The San Leandro Flex Shuttle and Hayward Round-About Shuttle are connecting the two <br />shuttle services to provide more transportation options for our residents. The services <br />connect at BART and bus stops. Eligibility for the extended service is simple: <br />a. Riders must be registered with the Hayward Round-About Shuttle or San Leandro Flex <br />Shuttle <br />b. Show rider ID to the driver <br />c. Follow each city's shuttle schedule, fares, and rider guidelines <br />Connecting the two shuttle services expands transportation options to San Leandro and <br />Hayward residents at no additonal cost to either city. We are hopeful that shuttle access to <br />Hayward will allow San Leandro riders to go to Hayward Kaiser and other medical facilities, <br />freeing up space on the Out-of--Town Medical Service. <br />2.
