OpenStreetsPGH is canceled for the 2020 season
As you may have expected by now, OpenStreetsPGH will not be able to take place as planned this summer due to the Covid-19 crisis. With your support in past years, we’ve organized OpenStreetsPGH as a joyful community celebration that honors walking and biking as fundamental modes of transportation. We will continue to keep this spirit of OpenStreetsPGH in our work at BikePGH, and encourage you to visit bikepgh.org to find other ways to get involved with our mission.
About OpenStreetsPGH:
OpenStreetsPGH temporarily closes streets to car traffic, and invites Pittsburghers to reimagine our streets as places for people. For a few hours on a summer morning, you can walk, run, bike, skate, roll, dance, and enjoy the streets at your own pace. Jump into a free fitness class, shop at local businesses, eat amazing food, and join activities hosted by local organizations.
OpenStreetsPGH is inspired by hundreds of open streets events around the globe. The open streets movement promotes car-free transportation, healthy outdoor activity, and community engagement using city streets.
This event series is organized by Bike Pittsburgh, a non-profit organization who works on behalf of the Pittsburgh community to transform our streets and communities into vibrant, healthy places by making them safe and accessible for everyone to bike and walk.
