Ridgewod NJ, On June 15, 2020, the “Welcome Back to Ridgewood” event will begin.  All retail businesses will be able to place their products on tables outside of their business (once they obtain a permit from the Village).  All food places will be permitted to have outdoor dining (once they obtain a permit from the Village).  Food will also still be available for pickup at the dining establishments.  Beginning on June 20, 2020, every Saturday through Sunday at 10:00 p.m., the Central Business District from North Walnut Street to Broad Street will be closed to vehicular traffic along East Ridgewood Avenue, including the side streets of Oak Street, Prospect Street, and Chestnut Street, which will create a pedestrian mall.  The retail businesses and outdoor dining in this area will be moved into the streets. Pedestrians will walk on the sidewalks in one direction (the same direction as vehicular traffic-arrows are painted on the sidewalks as a reminder) in order to maintain social distancing (with white painted dots placed 6 feet apart).  All of our businesses and restaurants have signed a pledge to adhere to the CDC guidelines, so customers can shop and dine with confidence in Ridgewood’s Central Business District.  Masks are strongly encouraged at this event and are always required to enter any businesses.
