For the sixth year in a row, the public is being invited downtown to walk, bike or hang out on the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach road track.

The Grand Prix View will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday. The 90-minute window is in the middle of the Long Beach Grand Prix Association’s media day, when various types of cars take to the street for practice laps, often with reporters as passengers.

Pedestrians can see the sights on 1.5 miles of the just more than 2-mile track (the Aquarium of the Pacific leg down Shoreline Drive is not closed). That means Shoreline Drive is closed from Pine Avenue to near Ocean Boulevard, as well as Pine from Seaside Way to Shoreline and all of Seaside Way. All of the streets open again later in the afternoon.

The Grand Prix View is an iteration of Beach Streets, where sections of streets are closed to vehicular traffic for most of a day. Mayor Robert Garcia said it is a good way to highlight the city’s bike-friendly approach.

“As a mobility friendly city, we strive to create activities and events like the Grand Prix View,” Garcia said. “This is a fun opportunity for bicyclists, pedestrians and families to rule the racecourse safely and enjoy the streets of Long Beach.”
