It was a pleasure to spend the weekend celebrating one of Providence's most cherished traditions. Our Italian community has long played a vital role in shaping the social, cultural and economic threads that make our city so special, leaving a lasting impact.

Safe, accessible public spaces are essential for every member of our community. That's why we've partnered up with Spin to introduce new designated parking areas for scooters and bicycles throughout Providence. These clearly marked white corrals are part of a new system designed to reduce improperly parked devices that block sidewalks, business entrances, bus stops, curb ramps and other public spaces.
