NYC Summer Streets
Summer Streets is an annual celebration of New York City's most valuable public space – our streets.
Summer Streets takes place on select Saturdays between 7am and 3pm. Miles of NYC's 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.
Summer Streets is a rain or shine event. Please follow NYC DOT on Instagram and Twitter for updates on schedule changes during the event.
