Treat Avenue Bike Boulevard laid the ground to one of the most-populated Cyclovia events in Tucson history. Thanks to the hundreds of participants who took our Cyclovia Census, we have a snapshot of how the day was enjoyed,

Our 22nd Cyclovia Tucson celebrated Treat Ave Bike Boulevard from Broadway Village to La Madera Park. With such mild weather, folks of all ages were able to bike, walk, roll through the neighborhoods of Broadmoor-Broadway Village, Sam Hughes, Blenman-Elm, Country Glenn, and La Madera.

On December 7th, 2024, Living Streets Alliance hosted our first, pilot CyclovITA—a mini-Open Streets event in the Amphi neighborhood, in partnership with Building Bridges and Woods Memorial Library.

Living Streets Alliance is thrilled to pilot its first mini Open Streets event, Cyclovita, this Saturday, December 7^th from 10 AM – 3 PM in the Amphi neighborhood.

The results are in! See how the 21st Cyclovia Tucson shaped up this fall, as told through data gathered through our Cyclovia Census (participant survey).
