Category: Festivals, special events, Free event, Health, wellness and Meetup

On behalf of Bike Walk Knoxville, you are invited to join us for World Day of Remembrance on Sunday, November 17. On World Day of Remembrance, communities across the country and around the world are organizing events to demand change that will save lives and prevent injuries. In Knoxville, the group will gather at noon in Market Square to commemorate the lives of friends, neighbors, and family members lost to road crashes. Advocates will call for safe streets and infrastructure improvements for vulnerable road users. The lights on the Henley Street Bridge will be yellow in honor of this event. We hope you will join us to remember lives lost to road crashes and call for action.
