This Sunday: Going Green on Route 16!

[ron_newman]

Route 16, from Broadway to Dilboy Field, will be closed to car traffic this Sunday from noon to 4 pm for the SomerStreets 'Going Green On Route 16' festival. Bring your bicycles, your roller skates, your skateboards, your Razor scooters, or just your shoes to enjoy a traffic-free afternoon on the parkway next to Alewife Brook.

The event will include live music, recreation programming, environmental exhibitions, sports demonstrations, face painting, a recycled sculpture contest, free swimming at Dilboy Pool, and more.

(Wouldn't it be nice to do this every Sunday, like Cambridge does on Memorial Drive during the summer and fall?)

Cambridge did post a small permanent sign at Mt. Auburn and DeWolfe. It would be helpful if they also posted a temporary sign at Eliot and Mt. Auburn, and if the DCR posted signs at intersections along Soldiers Field Road.
