Getting to
Open Streets
A Near Southside Experience
Presented by Trinity Metro
Saturday, April 13, 2024
Noon to 6 p.m.
Magnolia Avenue between Hemphill St. and 8th Ave.
Open Streets celebrates innovative ways to achieve environmental, social, economic, and public health goals by temporarily closing streets to automobile traffic, so that people may use them for walking, bicycling, dancing, playing and socializing.
In Fort Worth, Open Streets closes Magnolia Avenue to cars and opens it up to cyclists, food trucks, dog-walkers, skateboarders, yoga classes, face-painters and much more, including Trinity Metro. Come find us, say hello and play games with us!
It’s a community play-day dedicated to neighborly interaction, healthy activity and complete streets awareness. Below are Trinity Metro services that may deliver you to all of the family fun!
