amNY Sports email newsletterThis year’s Open Streets program will include 25 new stretches across the city, the city’s Department of Transportation announced on Earth Day.
The program kicks off this year with 160 locations across the five boroughs, spanning some 300 city blocks, according to DOT. Local business and community groups have submitted applications to DOT for dozens more streets to be opened up, which the agency is reviewing with the hope of launching additional spots by July.
“Spring has sprung — and I invite New Yorkers to celebrate the warm weather on our collective front yard: our streets,” said DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez in a statement. “We’re thrilled to continue building on the success of the Open Streets program, both with the launch of new sites across the City and through the permanent upgrades to existing locations.”
