CicLaVia is rolling through the streets of Los Angeles once again this weekend–but not the same streets it usually rolls through.
The bicycling block party has new route connecting MacArthur Park in Westlake with Exposition Park near USC, Downtown's newly-opened Grand Park, Chinatown and Mariachi Plaza in Boyle Heights. And that means a whole new set of streets will be closed off and a whole new set of intersections have been designated “car crossings.”
Here's what you need to know if you plan on navigating the streets this Sunday in (God forbid) a motor vehicle.
Closed roads:
West 7th Street from Park View Street to Spring Street
Figueroa Street from West 7th Street to Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard
Spring Street from West 7th Street to Ord Street
Ord Street from Spring Street to North Broadway
North Broadway from Ord Street to Bernard Street
West 1st Street from Spring Street to Central Avenue
Central Avenue from Spring Street to East 4th Street
