Join GoPhillyGo for National Week Without Driving!
National #WeekWithoutDriving is happening from September 29th until October 5th, and you’re invited to join the Clean Air Council and GoPhillyGo!
We’re asking elected officials, community leaders, and anyone else to step into the shoes of the almost one-third of Americans who don’t drive. So many groups don’t drive - youths, people with disabilities, senior citizens, and those who can’t afford cars or gas, or just don’t want to - relying on public transportation, cycling, or walking to get around every day.
Week Without Driving highlights how car-centered infrastructure in public spaces ignores the needs and safety of pedestrians. We invite you to join us in this experience, whether you try not to drive for the entire week or embrace transit, walking, rolling, and biking for a few trips! Every effort counts towards creating a more connected and equitable world. If you’re already a non-driver, please encourage your friends, family, and your elected officials to go a Week Without Driving!
Use this week to commute by biking, walking, and or taking public transportation, just add your destination into the GoPhillyGo Trip Planner and get routes to school, work for fun. Learn more and sign up to participate in this year’s Week Without Driving.
