Participants in the third CicLAvia travel through streets that are closed off to cars in Downtown L.A.



Los Angeles' third CicLAvia got underway this morning as traffic officers put barriers in place to close of ten miles of streets to cars and hand them over to cyclists, skateboarders, pedestrians and any other means of non-auto transportation.

The event runs until 3pm, and includes Downtown closures on 7th, Spring, 1st, Central and 4th, as well as spurs north on Main and south on 9th and Central.

Check back through the morning for updates and photos from the event.
