May is a Month to Celebrate!
The City of Columbia celebrates both historic preservation and bicycling in May, and you can help us celebrate by participating in a number of activities through the month.
All Bike Month and most Preservation Month activities are free, however some require pre-registration to participate.
Open Streets Columbia
April 22, 2018, 1-5pm, Devine Street (between Sims & Chatham)
The City of Columbia Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) invites you to attend the second annual Open Streets Columbia, Sunday, April 22nd, from 1-5pm along Devine Street. Open Streets initiatives temporarily close streets to automobile traffic, so that people may use them for walking, bicycling, dancing, playing, and socializing. Please plan to join us for activities for all levels (wear comfortable clothing), and bring your bicycle for bike-related activities if you can!
This event encourages the use of alternative transportation: please consider walking, biking, riding the Comet, or carpooling to the event. Free bike valet will be available at the event, and Comet routes 201 and 401 drop off near the event. Please note: Comet route 401 will detour onto Blossom Street between Queen Street and Kilbourne Road to avoid the street closure.
