Ciclovia!
Wednesday, January 09, 2008
Every Sunday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. the city of Bogota, Colombia closes 70 miles of major roads so that people can bike, roller blade, run and stroll without traffic. The "Ciclovia" has become a major community activity with 1.5 million people enjoying the traffic-free boulevards on an average weekend. Another term for this concept is "Sunday Parkways".
The City of Portland has a great rundown of their Sunday Parkways concept, with photos and videos of ciclovias from around the world.
