SPUR: Strait Up, A Bus Tour of the Cities of Carquinez

While many in the urban core believe that suburbia is a singular place, the reality is quite different.

Understanding these communities is key to truly making sense of the Bay Area and its growth challenges. Join us on a bus tour as we explore eastern Contra Costa County and some of its historic downtowns.
