• Festive Ribbon Cutting: At 6 p.m., participants will gather for a ride-through streamer ceremony in place of a traditional ribbon cutting.

The J Street Neighborhood Greenway is designed to reduce speeding and improve safety and accessibility for people walking, biking, and rolling to local businesses, schools, transit, parks, and other daily destinations. The two-mile route extends from North 3rd Street to South 27th Street, with east-west connections on South 11th Street, Earnest S. Brazil Street, South 17th Street, and South 18th Street.
