Choose Green Streets and apply for a Street Play Session

On Sunday 22nd September we want to reduce the number of cars on the road by encouraging residents and the local community to apply for a Street Play session.

What is Street Play?

Street Play offers a one-off road closure allowing children and families to play in streets at specified times, on specified days and in specified locations. 

Closing streets to cars can have a significant impact on our health and the environment 

  • Higher levels of physical activity 
  • Healthier and happier children and communties
  • Reduced air pollution
  • Reduced noise pollution
  • Increased road safety

Apply before the 16th of August and we’ll fast track your Street Play application in time for World Car FREE Day on the 22nd of September – it’s a win win!
