Activities within the week Activities within the week

Sollentuna organises activities during EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK 2015, taking into account the annual theme.

All week
We have two competitions running during the whole week, with prizes. In one competition we invite stores to use one of their parking spaces to something else than parking a car (for example a flea market). They can win an environmental education and get local publicity. The other competition is on Instagram, where everyone can tag themselves when they go to work and activities by bike, walking or by public transport.

Zone opened to residents on Car-Free Day:
We arrange the event "Bicycle´s day" the 19th. We close the parking lot outside the municipal building to arrange a flea market for bikes. We also have bike service, a bike parade and a unicycle show.
