From September 19 to 21, the pedestrian island will be expanded and closed to traffic and on Sunday there will be a popular pedal ride, which will pass through a new section of shared path for pedestrians and cyclists on the Congost promenade.

Once again, La Garriga joins the European Mobility Week, an event that aims to promote more sustainable, safe and healthy mobility habits.

Thus, on the occasion of Car Free Day, from September 19 at 5 pm, and until Sunday 21, La Garriga will expand the pedestrian island between c. Banys with c. Blancafort and c. Calàbria with ctra. Nova.

New shared path

On Sunday, a popular cycle ride will also be held, the novelty of which is that it will pass through a new section of shared path for pedestrians and cyclists on Passeig Congost, between Carrer Farrans and Carrer Moranta.
