For one day, Beach Streets West will be closing a major corridor to cars and open it up for walking, bicycling, and more!
This year’s event will uplift the City’s Westside Promise Initiative, a 10-year community investment plan that aligns existing City efforts and leverages partnerships to address current and historic challenges facing West Long Beach.
There are several key ways the City hopes to use “Beach Streets” as an invitation to think differently about our streets. “Beach Streets” is an invitation to:
- Consider local transit when getting around. Metro and LB Transit will be great ways to get to the event without having to deal with the stress of driving and parking.
- Explore local businesses and services. Try a new restaurant; explore a new retail store; find a business service that suits your needs.
- Walk or bike farther than you’ve ever done so before.
- Enjoy entertainment along the route, at a park, local eateries or a pub. Entertainment for all ages provided by local community groups, Long Beach Parks & Recreation, Council Offices and business associations.
