The Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) closes a portion Memorial Drive to motor vehicle traffic each weekend from the end of April to mid-November to allow pedestrians, cyclists, and others to enjoy the riverfront roadway without cars. The car-free area created by this closure is sometimes referred to as “Riverbend Park.”
Please note that this webpage is maintained by the City of Cambridge, but that Memorial Drive is operated and controlled by DCR.
Beginning on Sunday, April 27, 2025, and continuing through Sunday, November 9, 2025, weather permitting, the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) will open Riverbend Park and close a segment of Memorial Drive from Western Avenue to Gerry’s Landing on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. for pedestrian and cyclist use.
