Ms Locco, 60, died while cycling at Beaumaris on Sunday, with Mr Hyslop accused of fleeing the scene before his arrest a day later.
He did not appear in Melbourne Magistrates Court today because he was being held in isolation awaiting a family member's COVID-19 test result, his lawyer said.
Mr Hyslop faces four charges including failing to stop and render assistance.
He's due to face court again via video link for a committal mention on September 29.
