About Open Streets
Open Streets TO has announced its most expansive programming lineup to date, solidifying its position as the largest free recreation program in Canada. Program routes for 2018 are as follows:
Dates: Sunday, August 19, 2018 and Sunday, September 16, 2018
Times: 10:00AM to 2:00PM
Locations:
- Bloor Street (East/West from Montrose Avenue – just west of Christie Street – to Sherbourne Street)
- Yonge Street (North/South from Bloor Street to Queen Street).
On both dates, people traffic will replace car traffic, as the streets become “paved parks” where people of all ages, abilities, and social, economic and ethnic backgrounds can get active and connect with their community and each other.
