The application proposed a\nhybrid event that will combine all of the great things a traditional Open Streets event has to\noffer through a one-day Lancaster Walk N Roll Fest in the middle of an entire month where a\ntargeted network of Slow Streets Neighborhoods surrounding the route is created to both\nteach vehicle users to slow down and encourage the use of sustainable\ntransportation.
