Sunday September 22nd - 5:02 p.m.

I guess I was expecting too much - I often do.

But slowing down traffic on local streets on a Sunday is not my idea of a car free day. Looking out over the Gardiner Expressway, it's a laugh to even consider this Car Reduced Day. Bumper to bumper (even on a Sunday afternoon) as usual. That's the thoroughfare to make car-free. Car Free Day has to start outside the city. On the Gardiner, the DVP.

Then we can shut the inner city down and dance in the streets, like they do in Bogotá.

¿Que tiempo se lleva?


There are a number of websites providing additional information about Car Free Day, and how to get involved in 2003:

Car Free Day in Canada

United Nations Car Fee Days

Car Free Day Korea

Car Busters (Czech Republic)
