 CicLAvia will allow for the temporary closure of interconnected routes
through the city, creating a web of public space on which residents of Los
Angeles will be able to walk, bike, socialize, celebrate, and learn about
new cultures and neighborhoods.
Bogotá’s Ciclovía has also inspired open streets programs in Mexico City,
Guadalajara, Quito, and Melbourne. Similar events have successfully occurred
in other US cities, such as Portland, New York, and San Francisco.
Approximately 7.5 miles of LA city streets will be opened to families,
pedestrians, cyclists, joggers, skateboarders, and anyone else interested in
safely recreating in the public realm on Sept. 12th.
