Car Free Day Hudson Valley

Join us for the FIRST annual Car Free Day Hudson Valley! Car Free Day is a free international event celebrated every September 22nd in which people are encouraged to get around without driving alone in cars and instead ride a train, bus, subway, bicycle, carpool, vanpool, walk, or telework. Car Free Day is open to anyone who lives or works in the Hudson Valley. Take the pledge at carfreehv.com! The common goal of Car Free Day is reducing the number of cars on the streets. The benefit to greater society is a day with less traffic congestion, a greener environment and reduced gasoline demand. Today, Car Free Day includes celebrations in 1,500 cities in 40 countries.
