Car Free: Earth Day

Car Free: Earth Day is an annual celebration of New York City’s most valuable public space – our streets.

Summer Streets  are open in both directions for people to play, walk, and bike. Take a break along the route at one of our rest stops to enjoy free activities. Summer Streets provides space for healthy recreation and encourages New Yorkers to use more sustainable forms of transportation. In 2023, Summer Streets expanded to the five boroughs creating nearly 20 miles of Car-Free Streets.
