Strong Towns YXE proposing a Broadway pedestrian zone this summer
To keep Broadway lively during the bridge rehabilitation, Strong Towns YXE has proposed a pedestrian-only zone for the summer – May 1, 2025

With just two weeks until the Broadway Bridge closure, businesses and organizations on both sides of the river are scrambling to make sure they are ready.

To help bring people to Broadway during the bridge’s rehabilitation, Strong Towns YXE proposed a pedestrian-only zone.
