Carfree Glasgow

Carfree Glasgow
Glasgow has one of the lowest levels of car ownership in Britain, yet we currently give more than 25 percent of our city space over to roads (compared to just 12 percent in Edinburgh). This needs to change. We must transform Glasgow so that our people are prioritised - with pedestrian-friendly spaces linking together all our beautiful parks. Carfree Glasgow was founded in 2016 to help us imagine a healthier and more sustainable future for our city, by closing our roads to traffic to celebrate World Carfree Day on 22 September every year. We hope to be part of the effort to make Glasgow into the National Park City we can all enjoy.
