The public is invited to take over the streets across three San Gabriel Valley cities on Sunday, April 28, as ActiveSGV organizes a “ciclovia” open street event that will connect 5.5 miles of car-free corridors in Alhambra, San Gabriel and South Pasadena.

The free, family-friendly event — Active Streets: Mission-to-Mission — welcomes residents to walk, bike, skate, scoot, roll, and explore the three cities, each with an activity hub in their respective downtown districts with live music, artists, community organizations and games. GoSGV E-bike test ride zones will also be available in the South Pasadena and San Gabriel hubs.

Parts of Mission Street, Marengo Avenue, Alhambra Road, Main Street, Las Tunas Drive, and Mission Drive will be closed to vehicle traffic during the event, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., with crossings for cars dotted throughout the route.
