Part of Government Street will be car free starting today until the fall.

The hope is to bring more pedestrian traffic through the downtown to some of the re-opened shops and businesses. The initiative will also let businesses open up more into the street for better social distancing. After October 31st the city councilor’s wills reassess the project.
