Bow River Flow

Memorial Drive lanes to close again for Bow River Flow street party

The Bow River Flow street party will expand in its second year without closing down an extra metre of Memorial Drive laneway. After last year’s celebration of "human-powered transportation" attracted several thousand cyclists and pedestrians— although less than half what was expected — organizers announced Monday that its Aug. 22 return will occur on the same stretch of Memorial and also loop around the Eau Claire pathways on the river’s south bank.
