With gas prices in Metro Vancouver reaching a new all-time high over the weekend, it’s an opportune time to think about leaving your vehicle at home, even for a day. A free community event in Surrey this Saturday is encouraging people to do so while having a fun time.

The first Car-Free Day Surrey, hosted by the Newton Business Improvement Association and presented by TransLink, is happening on June 11 on 137th Street between 72A Ave and 74 Ave.

Attendees will enjoy artisan vendors and local merchants, food trucks, family-friendly activities, and a huge lineup of concerts and entertainment.
