Open Streets 704 is returning in 2023, but with a twist. Instead of one long route of car-free fun being planned twice of year, there will be multiple Corridors Connect events. These will have shorter routes than the previous Open Streets 704 events, but there will be more of them.
What’s an Open Streets festival? It’s a special event during which streets are closed to automobile traffic and filled with everything from recreation and health activities to art, entertainment and environmental activities. They’re generally held on a Sunday, when traffic is at its lowest.
These are free events.
