Open Streets, a Salt Lake initiative that turns downtown Main Street into a walkable promenade, returns this weekend with more changes.
. The idea three years ago was to draw business back to Main Street in a safer manner during the height of the pandemic.
. Salt Lake City's Downtown Alliance previously ran the program because of language outlined in an emergency proclamation tied to the pandemic. Dee Brewer, director of the Salt Lake City Downtown Alliance, speaks beside Salt Lake City leaders at a press conference Wednesday promoting Open Streets. The street will be closed to cars from noon to 1 a.m. every Friday and Saturday beginning this weekend and continuing through Oct. 28.
Brewer said the city ultimately decided to nix Sundays this year to save costs and because the Downtown Alliance had a "hard time" coming up with programs to provide on Sundays.
