Car Free Day – Sunday 29 September in Guildford Town Centre
Car Free Day is celebrated across the world – join us in Guildford town centre on Sunday 29 September 2024 from 11.00am to 4.00pm for a free community event and “Be part of a Greener Guildford”.
The event encourages motorists to choose alternative travel such as walking, cycling or public transport, instead of using their car for the day. At the same time, we can reduce air pollution and give more room to breathe.
Guildford Borough Council is coordinating this free, fun, and interactive event, bringing in dozens of local providers, traders, and community organisations, all working together. The event will involve a range of environmental education and awareness activities, family entertainment, and many different stalls on the High Street. Car Free Day will help attendees contribute to making Guildford a more sustainable place.
