Open Streets Windsor

Open Streets Windsor is coming back to a neighbourhood near you!

After a very successful Open Streets East End Edition in 2024, we're bringing the excitement back to the West and Central route for 2025!

This year's event will feature many new and exciting things to explore, as you ride, walk, explore and enjoy this exciting community activity. See the 2025 route overview, below, and check back soon for more information about activities and community partners along this year's route!

What is Open Streets about?

Open Streets events have been held in over 100 cities in North America and involve the temporary closure of roadways to vehicular traffic, allowing people to use them for a host of healthy and fun physical activities like walking, cycling, yoga, dancing and fitness.

As thousands have witnessed over the years, Open Streets Windsor is about more than providing a space for people to walk, cycle, roller blade, etc. — It is about engaging the community, and providing a chance to explore the streets and neighbourhoods of our city in a brand new way!

The goals of Open Streets Windsor are to:

• Encourage active transportation and physical activity;
• Encourage community building activities;
• Promote community-led active living initiatives;
• Showcase recently improved streetscapes;
• Provide an opportunity for local businesses and organizations to participate along the route.
