Parking Day

Small parks in parking lots

Parking lots in cities take up far more of the available open space than do parks and places allocated for people. Park(ing) day is an annual campaign where people across the world temporarily repurpose curbside parking spaces and convert them into public parks and social spaces to advocate for safer, greener, and more equitable streets for people. The area can be covered by an artificial grass and decorated with trees, bushes or flowers (in containers) and chairs or sofas. Anyone can come to relax and enjoy the temporary community areas which are freed from cars at least this one day a year.
