Streets are for people. By closing some streets to cars on Sundays we open them for people to freely walk, jog, cycle and roll. Explore your city in a new way.

Parents: did you enjoy #CarFreeSunday? Kids: YES! Can’t every day be car free? Parents: err no as … we have to take the car every other day… Kids: Why? Parents: 🤔🤔🤔 #MobilityWeek. Safe and healthy with sustainable mobility. – at Ukkel, België

Your regular reminder that improving public spaces through reducing the dominance of private vehicles absolutely needs to meet the access needs of disabled people, no matter what mode they use. I'm not interested in urbanism that further marginalizes disabled people.

It’s a great day to explore the city! We met up with some of tomorrow’s speakers and chatted plans for the downtown core and Cogswell district with @downtownpaul and then took the ferry over to check out @OpenstreetsHFX and @AlderneyPlaza 🤗

Stopped at the donut shop, shared one with my sister and we enjoyed this Sweet Cherry Fritterand Raisin + Pecan Butter Tart donut while venturing around Dartmouth for Open Street Sunday, where they shut some streets to cars and have a big party.
