#WeWalkMpls is back for the second year! Join Our Streets Minneapolis and the City of Minneapolis as we work together to highlight folks who walk as a primary way to get around our city.

What is #WeWalkMpls?

The #WeWalkMpls project is a collaboration between Our Streets Minneapolis and the City of Minneapolis. Our goal is to celebrate walking in our city and encourage more folks to try walking for transportation.

Come celebrate with us next month! 

Last month we decided to meet in July even though many attendees would be out of town for the July 4th holiday. We decided that we didn’t want to lose our recent momentum - and we didn’t! We have lots of exciting projects that we are working on, some of which we’ll share at a later date.

We started the meeting with introductions, welcoming one new member, and welcoming back one member from a previous era of the Downtown Bikeways work group! We shared some of our favorite biking related memories as an ice breaker.

Open Streets Minneapolis 

Open Streets Lyndale had a record turnout at 58k people, with 45k being the previous record. The Our Streets Minneapolis booth was busy and collected over 100 postcards for winter maintenance. The next Open Streets Minneapolis event is Open Streets Lake + Minnehaha on Sunday, July 21st.
