Two decades later, on the 20th anniversary of its launch, a second ArroyoFest is coming to the 110 Freeway on Oct. 29.
Bicycle riders, folks on skates and people just walking down the lanes of the 110 Freeway in Northeast Los Angeles on June 15, 2003, the date of the first ArroyoFest. Now, 20 years later, the freeway will be shut to cars and once again allow only people walking or on two wheels during the next ArroyoFest on Oct. 29, 2023.
The southbound lanes will be reserved for pedestrians, including walkers, runners, wheelchair users and small children with their parents or guardians, sort of like a giant sidewalk. Northbound lanes are for those riding wheeled devices including bikes, skates, scooters, e-bikes and skateboards., says faster riders must yield to slower riders and all should keep to the right because the lanes will be bi-directional.
“In terms of the Arroyo Seco Parkway, it will only be the second time the public will be able to walk and bike on it,” said Wes Reutimann, deputy director and founder of ActiveSGV, the event’s organizer. “It is not only legal, but it will be enjoyable. This is really a unique opportunity to experience the Arroyo Seco in a different way.”and want to be there on Oct. 29. Some wrote they’re bringing family members who missed it the first time or weren’t born yet.
Walking on the 110 Freeway during the first ArroyoFest in 2003 was a people jam. There were also bicyclers and people on scooters, skateboards and the like. A new ArroyoFest: takes place on Oct. 29, 2023. . Reutimann said this is the perfect freeway for a CicLAvia-type event. It wouldn’t be the same if held on the 210 Freeway, he said.
That soon changed and 120,000 drivers a day now speed through the curves, passing small parks, towering sycamore trees and stone bridges, flying by the green space with a tunnel vision of simply getting to their destinations. It became the most accident-prone freeway in Los Angeles County, Gottlieb said.
Metro awarded ActiveSGV $496,000 to plan and pull off the second ArroyoFest, hoping that many will notice the A Line along the 110 Freeway and even use it to get back from the hubs in the afternoon, after the freeway reopens to car traffic.
