World Car Free Day

World Car Free Day is coming up! On September 22 every year, cities across the globe ban traffic from major roadways to experience the city with less private traffic and explore how the urban landscape shifts when it becomes more pedestrian centered than automobile centered. This month Car Free Day is going to be celebrated by 2,000 cities in over 46 countries! World Car Free Day has been a catalyst to cities in the past realizing how charming their cities can be without the incessant traffic noise. Private traffic is limited to main streets, and emergency or maintenance vehicles still have all the access they need. This initiative is really exciting because it gives us a glimpse of a city a child wouldn’t have to look both ways before chasing their ball into the street. We invite you to join in this September 22, 2019, to your do own Car Free Day!
