Sunday Streets

City Government’s on a bit of a fitness campaign here lately – not that that’s bad. (Dovetails pretty well with the sustainability and planning for growth projects they’re working towards as well…) One part of this is that every so often they close a segment of a major street to cars and open it for pedestrians and cyclists. Yesterday it was part of Westheimer.

Being a cycle-friendly pedestrian myself, I try to make it out to these things when I can, because if the public doesn’t support them, they’ll stop happening. That’s bad, because if we don’t get out in front of the changes that are happening and are going to continue, we’ll continue to get steamrollered by them.

Plus they’re kind of fun.
