Yesterday was this month’s Healthy Dearborn Coalition meeting.
A very interesting and exciting opportunity was discussed:
OPEN STREETS
The first potential Open Streets date in Dearborn is projected to be conducted this June.
A major street would be closed to vehicle traffic and open to walking, biking, exercising, and exploring.
Our Inclusive Health Committee specifically will be planning on how to make the route more accessible for individuals with special needs — taking into consideration things like the activities and parking into consideration as well as possibly opening the event an hour early only to individuals with sensory issues.
More to come …….
