The Union Street Protected Bikeway project runs along Union Street between Arroyo Parkway and Hill Avenue and along Holliston Avenue between Union Street and Cordova Street.
A ribbon cutting ceremony and resource fair will take place on Saturday, September 9, 2023 from 8:30 am to 11:00 am in Centennial Square, in front of City Hall. Local, state and federal officials and dignitaries have been invited to speak at the event and participate in an inaugural bike ride. The morning’s events will begin at 8:30 am, with dignitaries speaking at 9:30 am, followed by a short inaugural bike ride on Union Street from City Hall to Playhouse Village Park and back.
The Union Street Protected Bikeway is a 1.5 mile long two-way protected bike lane along Union Street and a 0.3 mile long bike boulevard along Holliston Avenue with traffic signal and curb ramp improvements along both streets. The bikeway will allow residents and visitors to reach Pasadena destinations such as Old Pasadena, Playhouse Village, Pasadena City College, and Caltech on bike.
