Worcester is officially marking World Car Free Day on 22 September by closing Lowesmoor to cars from midday to 3.00pm to hold a special event.
Instead a giant astro turf play area will take over the road and staff from Freedom Leisure will run free multi sports and tennis sessions.
The Duckworth Worcestershire Trust will also be on hand to offer free play sessions and a chance to 'pimp your bike' using scrap resources from the Worcestershire Resource Exchange.
Woo Bikes, a city-wide electric bike share scheme, will also be at the event, giving members of the public the chance to try out the bikes. The scheme was initially piloted with staff and students at the University of Worcester and is now being offered to other employers in the City.
Let's Waste Less volunteers will be present to offer advice on reducing food waste, recycling, composting, Repair Cafes and cloth nappy schemes.
Cllr Joy Squires, Chair of Worcester City Council's Environment Committee says:
"We are holding this event to raise awareness of the dangers of toxic air and to encourage everyone living, working or visiting Worcester to look at ways they might cut down on car travel.
"As our prosperous city expands, we are determined to ensure that this does not have a detrimental impact on residents or the environment."
