The fifth Vía Recreativa takes over Bulevar Las Joyas between Avenida Coral and Avenida De la Perla, in Colonia Los Álamos, on Sunday, Nov. 15, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., El Imparcial reported. The stretch closes to cars, and carts, scooters and e-bikes aren’t allowed either, so people can walk it. The free event is organized by the collective Tijuanita Mi Ciudad, and the Los Álamos neighbors’ committee helped make the street closure possible; organizer Ana Karen Cortés told the paper it’s a peaceful demonstration for the right to safe, accessible and sustainable mobility.

The plan includes skating classes, capoeira, music, talks on menstrual education, adapted hiking and workshops, per El Imparcial. The organizers say about 3,500 people have taken part across the four previous editions.
