Now, it is back in San Francisco!<\/p>\n<p>How much will it cost<\/p>\n<p>Sunday Streets is free to all participants. Some will enjoy the route by strolling, skating, cycling, or just people-watching. Others will participate in free group events such as tai chi, yoga, aerobics and other activities. These group events will be spaced out along the route. Information on these activities is contained in this website.<\/p>\n<p>Who can participate? Do I have to sign-up?<\/p>\n<p>Bay Area residents of all ages, families, local businesses, and visitors are all invited to join the fun. Come one come all. No sign-ups required. Participants will enjoy this unique opportunity to safely enjoy the streets and explore new neighborhoods. We are working with an array of San Francisco organizations to coordinate activities along the route, so there are sure to be something for everyone!<\/p>\n<p>How will Sunday Streets impact city traffic?<\/p>\n<p>Sunday Streets will be held on Sunday mornings, which is the time during the week with minimal auto traffic. Pilot dates have been selected to avoid overlap with other large events with traffic impacts such as Giants and 49ers games and street fairs. Additionally, the route will be a \u2018soft closure\u2019 with cross traffic allowed at a limited number of points along the route and auto access for residents and businesses located within the closed route. This type of closure has worked very well in other cities around the world. Traffic will be monitored so that any traffic impacts can be measured.<\/p>\n<p>For information about detours and traffic impacts, please see the detour map contained in this website or call 311.<\/p>\n<p>Who will benefit?<\/p>\n<p>Sunday Streets offers free and fun physical activity space to all San Franciscans and provides open space in neighborhoods that lack such space currently. Local businesses will also benefit from increased pedestrian and bicycle traffic along commercial corridors. The events provide a model of how cities can provide healthy, environmental friendly outdoor activities for their residents.<\/p>\n<p>How can I get involved?<\/p>\n<p>Sunday Streets attracted over 20,000 residents last year. Without the help and support from our volunteers, we would not have made such a positive event a reality.

This weekly event draws more than 1.5 million people to walk, bike, skate and enjoy more than 70 miles of streets opened to people \u2013 and closed to automobile traffic \u2013 every week.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly 20% of this city\u2019s population turns out every Sunday and holiday to participate in the 7 am to 2 pm event, which includes unparalleled free recreation and social opportunities, including dance and yoga lessons in the city\u2019s streets and local parks.<\/p>\n<p>Bogot\u00e1 has the distinction of hosting the biggest and longest-running Ciclov\u00eda in the world. Founded in 1976, it started small and grew in the 90&#8217;s under the Mayor and the Parks Director, Enrique and Guillermo Pe\u00f1alosa. By 1996 it was recognized as the most important recreational activity in the country. The route was extended to 50 miles in 1997 and events to appeal to non-cyclists were added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Aerobics on the Way&#8217; soon began to attract new people to the Ciclov\u00eda and the City set a world record by having over 37,000 people performing aerobics on the same stage at one time. Activities for skaters and joggers were created to continue to widen the appeal.<\/p>\n<p>Bogat\u00e1 was careful when expanding their Sunday event to choose routes that connect neighborhoods. The original route was mostly centered on the northern end of the City.<\/p>\n<p>Now the Ciclov\u00eda covers 70% of the 20 neighborhoods, with four loops through the city., enticing people to walk, skate, or cycle to other neighborhoods, visit friends and take their children to different neighborhood parks to play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday Street SF Sunday, June 20 \u2022 10am to 3:pm 19th Street (Dolores to Valencia) Valencia Street (19th to 24th) 24th Street (Valencia to Potrero) Harrison Street (17th to Garfield Park at 26th) What is Sunday Streets?
