Get out and connect with your community and urban environment in a transformative way!
Sunday Streets (also called “Open Streets”) closes streets to automobile traffic for a day so that people may use the space for other physical and social activities. The streets become parks as people replace car traffic. People walk, bike, skate and dance and play. Everyone from businesses and community organizations to musicians and artists use the space creatively, engaging the public and providing spontaneity and discovery. This temporary public space inspires creativity and change for the better, on that day – and beyond.
The first Sunday Streets Berkeley was on October 14, 2012. More than 42,000 people came to Shattuck Ave to stroll, skate, cycle, dance, play in the street. People came from all over the Bay Area to experience Berkeley anew. Local Berkeley businesses reported a 30-50% increase in sales on the day of the event. The first-ever Sunday Streets Berkeley was by all measures a great success.
Previous routes have been expanded – Sunday Streets now runs the length of Shattuck from Rose to Channing, and continues on Durant to Telegraph.
Here’s an interactive map of Sunday Streets activities.

The Traffic & Safety Commission Meeting is a great place to make your ideas known, find out about the transportation issues and projects in Albany, and help improve things for cyclists and pedestrians in and around our town. This special date is the only time the Commission will meet during the months of November and December.
The Agenda will include:
*Kains and Adams two-way internal pilot program (to enable two-way bicycling on these streets nearest San Pablo)
*Washington on the Hill [Clear Sidewalks] Project: Draft plan to allow cars to park on the northern sidewalks and not park on the southern sidewalks on Washington between Cerrito and Pierce. (This is a small part of a larger plan to free up sidewalk access for pedestrians so that adults and kids won’t have to enter the street to move along Washington in this area.)
*Codornices Creek Restoration Project: includes bike/ped path
The agenda and all attachments are here.
