CicLAvia-South LA presented by Metro
On Sunday, July 10, from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. CicLAvia will open 3-miles of streets in South LA along Western Ave. between Exposition Blvd and Florence Ave, connecting the neighborhoods of Vermont Square, Harvard Park, Chesterfield Square, Exposition Park, and King Estates. For all ages and abilities, the public is invited to bike, skate, run, walk, skateboard, scooter, spectate, and enjoy the route however they want. CicLAvia is a free, open event – show up anywhere along the route at any time and have fun! Participants are encouraged to take the E (Expo) line to the Western Station.
This Western Ave corridor was chosen by CicLAvia to highlight a new initiative led by City Councilmember Marqueece Harris-Dawson, StreetsLA, and LADOT which aims to bring new safety enhancements (pending safety improvements) to sections of Western Ave in South Los Angeles which has long been plagued by traffic collisions.
CicLAvia turns public streets into public parks for a day, where joy meets purpose, restoring comfort to the community and reminds us of the value of public spaces for all. CicLAvia reinforces what matters most to us – connection with each other and with our communities. Whether one bikes, walks, strolls, skates, or jogs, we create more incredible moments and experiences enjoying our city streets together. Inspired by Bogotá’s weekly ciclovía, CicLAvia temporarily closes streets to car traffic and opens them to Angelenos to use as a public park.
Only people-powered vehicles allowed. No electric scooters, skateboards, hoverboards, unicycles, motorcycles and other non-people-powered vehicles allowed at CicLAvia. Class 1 e-bike pedal-assist allowed. Class 2 e-bikes allowed when throttle is powered off. Class 3 e-bikes allowed when pedal-assist is powered off. Motorized wheelchairs are allowed. Learn more here.
Participants assume all known and unknown risks of participation in CicLAvia. More information regarding participants rights can be found here: https://www.ciclavia.org/south_la22

LOS ANGELES (July 6, 2022) Friends of the LA River (FoLAR) is proud to host its 33rd Annual Great LA River CleanUp, with every year attracting new and returning members of LA’s many communities to the region’s winding connective center. After three-plus decades of helping shift the perception of the LA River to be considered a valued and vibrant part of the fabric of Los Angeles, and taking a year off due to the pandemic, FoLAR brought back a smaller variation of the annual CleanUp last year. This year, CleanUp is back in full swing, having already prevented 25,000 pounds of trash from entering the river during earlier June events. The July CleanUp dates feature two key sites – Lewis MacAdams Riverfront Park (7/9) and Willow Street Estuary in Long Beach (in partnership with The City of Long Beach) (7/23) – along with three other locations still open for registration throughout July, including a new site at Maywood Riverfront Park. Registration for volunteers is open at: 
The CleanUp is a popular annual event for Angelenos of all ages and backgrounds, attracting families, students, community members, and elected officials to the River. From drawing a mere 10 people to the first CleanUp in 1989, today it draws 1000s of volunteers and a vast range of volunteer groups from scout troops, utilities, and entertainment, to religious organizations, labor unions, and a bevy of nonprofits—demonstrating how the interest in and passion for the LA River has grown. It is also, for many, a place to learn about and take a hands-on approach to addressing climate change.
“Our CleanUp is a great way to start your journey in river stewardship and activism. We hope you’ll join us this summer in keeping our River clean, and allowing it to play its role in supporting a climate resilient future for people and wildlife. See you on the River!” adds Christiansen.
