BOSTON - Newbury Street in Boston is adding many more car-free days this summer as the city expands its "Open Streets" program.

Newbury will be pedestrian-only for 16 Sundays, starting July 2 and running through October 15. Last year, the program ran for six Sundays on Newbury.

"That's 10 more days for residents and visitors to explore the 8-block, mile-long stretch of shops and restaurants, galleries and activities, free from car traffic," Mayor Michelle Wu said.

Additionally, Wu announced Open Streets events are expanding to East Boston and Allston-Brighton this year.
