San Francisco is one of 10 cities in the U.S. launching a Play Streets Program. The Play Streets

initiative is a more neighboorhood oriented version of Sunday Streets, a series of events that temporarily shuts down roads to vehicular traffic, in order to promote walking and cycling activities.

The “Play Streets for All” initiative, a collaboration between the SF Municipal

Transportation Agency, Livable City, and public health organizations, will target neighborhoods in San Francisco, CA that suffer from the high rates of childhood obesity.

In 2012, San Francisco hosted a total of 10 Sunday Street events.

The Sunday Streets website provides information about the free events that provide an opportunity for San Francisco residents to be active.
