Sunday Parkways rolls through North Portland this weekend.
The City of Portland Sunday Parkways presented by Kaiser Permanente has teamed up with international “Make Music Day” to bring more moving, music, and fun to the North Portland Sunday Parkways this Father’s day.
North Portland Sunday Parkways is having a 9.5 mile route for people to bike, stroll, roll, skate and play from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Usually, Sunday Parkways events feature activities in the Portland parks along the route, but this Sunday’s event also features two full stages of live, local music that play throughout the day.
The North Portland Sunday Parkways route connects neighborhoods east and west of I-5 on neighborhood greenways, residential streets with low speed limits that are marked with bicycle symbols on the pavement.
The event’s detailed Sunday Parkways route map shows the route as well as bus and light rail options to help area residents get to Sunday Parkways via bike and transit. A schedule and listing of event highlights are available on the Sunday Parkways North Portland brochure.
