What is Car-Free MSP?

In honor of World Car-Free Day on September 22, 2025, Regional Transportation Partners are teaming up to promote opportunities, resources, and events to go car-free and connect with the community throughout the month of September. 

World Car-Free Day aims to create awareness and educate communities about alternatives to driving alone. Launched in Spain in 1996, World Car-Free Day is observed in 1,500 cities and more than 40 countries.  

Individuals in the MSP region can pledge to try a car-free trip anytime in September 2025 and experience the health, happiness, and community benefits that can result!
