A vibrant celebration of Merseyside community for World Car Free Day Liverpool 2023
Earlier in the year, the Merseyside community came together for a huge celebration of the potential for a future with fewer cars. A weeklong series of events culminated with a free, family friendly festival at the Mystery Park in Wavertree on Sunday 24 September, and a led ride through the city centre, finishing at the sPark It parklet at Mann Island. The Leader of Liverpool City Council, Liam Robinson, and the Deputy Lord Mayor Richard Kemp, both lent their voices to the call for a future with safer, healthier and happier streets.
Thanks to Transition Together, we were able to create a short film to celebrate the event.
