The City of Pasadena invites everyone to join CicLAvia—Pasadena on Sunday, November 15, from 9am to 3pm, in partnership with the nonprofit <a href="https://protect.checkpoint.com/v2/r01/___https:/ciclavia.org/___.YXAzOmNpY2xhdmlhOmM6Z29vZ2xlX21haWxfYXR0YWNobWVudDplODBkMmJjMzA0OTg0ZWNkNmU2Mzg2YmZmMDNkNGM4Zjo3OmI0OWM6ZTdmN2Y0MWZkZTI3NzVjMjM1ZjMwMzRhMjE0YmU4MWRiYjRiYTkyMTU1NDEzNWUxYWRiYzY4MTcyYjQxNzg1NjpwOlQ6Tg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">CicLAvia</a> and funded in part by Metro. The event will temporarily convert sections of our city streets into vibrant, car-free zones for community enjoyment, walking, biking, rolling, and gathering.
CicLAvia
is a nonprofit organization that has been opening streets throughout Los Angeles County for 16 years. It transforms city streets into a car-free celebration of community, connection, and possibility — places where participants can slow down, connect, and appreciate the city in a new way. CicLAvia is about reimagining our city streets as welcoming spaces for everyone — places for walking, running, rolling, skating, cycling, gathering, and enjoying the moment. 
The 2.7-mile CicLAvia route includes Colorado Boulevard (Pasadena Avenue to Allen Avenue) and Raymond Avenue (Pacific Alley to Dayton St), forming a seamless corridor through Old Pasadena, Playhouse Village, South Lake Avenue, and connecting Metro’s Memorial Park and Del Mar Stations. Cars will be permitted to cross at six (6) key intersections across the CicLAvia route. Two (2) activity hubs with community programming, services, and activities are located at Memorial Park and at Colorado Boulevard and Allen Avenue. Hubs offer free family-friendly activities, restrooms, free water refilling stations, free basic bike repair, bike parking, places to sit and meet up with friends and family, and first aid. Free pedicab rides are available at each hub’s information booth
To provide further connections to the CicLAvia route, the City is temporarily setting up dedicated ‘pop-up’ bike lanes, known as ‘Slow Streets’, with traffic cones and signage to separate bikes and wheeled devices from normal operating street traffic. A 1.0-mile western Slow Streets segment will run along Walnut Avenue between Raymond Avenue and Orange Grove Boulevard and then continue to Rosemont Avenue a few blocks from the Rose Bowl. Additionally, a 1.0-mile segment along Colorado Boulevard from Allen Avenue to San Gabriel Boulevard will connect East Colorado Boulevard to the Lamanda Park neighborhood.
Streets along the CicLAvia route will close to cars from 7am to 5pm. on Sunday, November 15, with no parking allowed along the route beginning at 4am. Cars on the Slow Street routes will be allowed, and parking will be temporarily restricted similar to the CicLAvia route (4am to 5pm). No parking signs will be posted in advance and towing will be enforced. A virtual community meeting will be held Thursday, October 15, at 5:30pm via Zoom at <a href="https://protect.checkpoint.com/v2/r01/___http:/bit.ly/ciclavia_pasadena_CM___.YXAzOmNpY2xhdmlhOmM6Z29vZ2xlX21haWxfYXR0YWNobWVudDplODBkMmJjMzA0OTg0ZWNkNmU2Mzg2YmZmMDNkNGM4Zjo3OmFjYTI6ZjMzMTdkMzFjMjc0ZTRmODI5YmU2Yjg2ZDU4ZTc4NDIyMjYyZjEzYzllYTlmYzlmOGE2ZDQ0ZjZjYTg3YTk4OTpwOlQ6Tg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">bit.ly/ciclavia_pasadena_CM</a>. Attendees will learn about route details, programming, closures, business opportunities, and volunteer roles. Spanish translation will be provided.
