Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte announced the continuation of the 'Car-Free, Carefree Sundays' initiative along Tomas Morato Avenue. The program aims to promote physical activity, reduce vehicular emissions, and create a more sustainable and people-friendly urban environment.
QUEZON City will continue to implement its 'Car-free, Carefree Sundays' along Tomas Morato Avenue to promote physical activity and reduce vehicular emissions, Mayor Joy Belmonte said Monday.Belmonte said the initiative will be implemented once a month for now from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. After a year, it will be enforced twice a month.' Car-Free Sundays reflect our vision of a sustainable, people-first Quezon City ,' Belmonte said.
'We want to encourage outdoor activities, promote healthy living, and support our commitment to environmental sustainability,' she added.She said that 'Car-free Sundays' is a result of an ordinance passed late last year which closes a portion of the avenue to vehicular traffic to give way to pedestrians, joggers and cyclists. 'The initiative aims to foster an active mobility, reduce vehicular emissions, and create a cleaner, greener urban environment,' the mayor said in a statement emailed to The Manila Times.The road closure covers Tomas Morato Avenue from Timog Avenue to Don Alejandro Roces Avenue
