Sunday Streets Berkeley takes place on Shattuck Ave for 17 blocks from Rose Street to Haste Street. Sunday Streets (also called "Open Streets") closes streets to automobile traffic for a day so that people may use the space for other physical and social activities.

Storefronts will be unobstructed, and business owners will be encouraged to promote commerce and visibility by setting out seating on the street, hosting activities, and otherwise inviting interest and community.
