“Going Green on Rt. 16,” the city’s third installment of the 2012 SomerStreets series, took place  Sunday, August 19,  along Route 16 , from Dilboy Stadium to Broadway.

SomerStreets builds on the Shape Up Somerville healthy living initiative. Similar open streets events take place all around the world, providing space normally taken up by automobile traffic for people to be more active.

The final SomerStreets event for 2012, “Monster Mashed-Up” will be held on Sunday, October 28.

All SomerStreets events will run from 12-4 p.m., rain or shine. Residents who live directly on Rt. 16 please call Carlene Campbell-Hegarty at 857-523-9017 in advance or on the day of the event to assist you in leaving/returning to your property safely.
