Pedestrians take advantage of car-free Frankfort Avenue for CycLOUvia

Not only does the event promote healthy living, it also encourages participants to support small businesses along the corridor.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Frankfort Avenue was closed to vehicular traffic on Sunday to give pedestrians a chance to enjoy the roadway for a little health and wellness.

CycLOUvia returned to Crescent Hill after a four-year absence.

It gave pedestrians a chance not only to take part in a little biking or skateboarding, but a chance to walk while visiting and supporting some of the small businesses along the way.

The event featured fun for the entire family including lots of delicious food.

Organizers behind CycLOUvia said they wanted to repurpose public spaces by temporarily replacing traditional vehicular traffic with pedestrian traffic.

The last CycLOUvia was held on Frankfort Avenue in 2018.
