Yesterday L.A. City and Culver City joined forces to open miles of westside streets to people on foot, bike, skates, scooter, wheelchair and more. The event route extended 6.75 miles from Venice Beach to downtown Culver City.
CicLAvia has hosted a similar route more or less annually for a few years. The Westside CicLAvia is among the most popular routes; the streets actually get wonderfully crowded at some points.
Tens of thousands of people from all over southern California descended on the Westside to enjoy quiet car-free streets. Below are event photos.
