Boston Launches Halloween Spooky Streets Map with More Than 100 Car-Free Streets
Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts — Mayor Michelle Wu announced on October 31 a new interactive map highlighting more than 100 streets across Boston that will be closed to traffic for trick-or-treating and community celebrations over Halloween weekend. The Spooky Streets map brings together all Play Street permits active from October 30 through November 1, including permits held by recipients of the Spooky Streets Grant Program, so residents can find safe, family-friendly places where neighbors gather to celebrate.
The map is at boston.gov/spooky-streets and covers neighborhoods across Boston. A Play Street permit is an official city authorization allowing residents to temporarily close a residential street to through traffic, turning it into a walkable festival space.
The city said the arrangement is meant to give children and families a safer outdoor environment over Halloween weekend and to make community celebrations easier to find. Streets across the city were closed under the permits on October 31.
