In 24 hours: 4 SEPARATE incidents of Louisville drivers hitting pedestrians. A 17-year-old kid was fatally hit. Another driver struck a 10 year old. All this is on the heels of city officials saying they’re taking actions to make roads safer.

Very few organizations can claim they impacted residents in every corner of the county. Center for Neighborhoods’ flagship educational program - Neighborhood Institute - did just that. It’s a critical service that has strengthened civic engagement for 35 years.

PBS came out and did an interview with me about stroads and we got to walk around my hometown. Someone just sent me the video and it's great.

Appreciate @WDRBNews covering the traffic safety improvements happening in Old Louisville, and why all-way stops reduce both the number and severity of crashes.

Thanks especially to @adischanienews!

[Friends of Bardstown Road @FriendsBtownRd]

We like this idea from the @BroadwayPlan that actually changes this intersection at Baxter and Cherokee to shorten this crosswalk, create green space, and offset the intersection. https://t.co/WcY8xGb2cM

Thanks to @MyOldKYPod for being one of the few orgs besides @WFPLNews and @_Citystate to cover the merger Comprehensive Review Commission's data 'analysis'. Great recommendation and analysis deep dive by @rkahne. Have a listen around the 27 minute mark: https://t.co/fpcFCZHbeH

[James Briggs @JamesEBriggs]

I’m off this week but just saw this and I continue to be puzzled by what the Shreve campaign considers to be the profile of a likely Shreve voter. He’s announcing he wants to end what’s, quite possibly, the single most universally beloved city initiative this year.

New quick-build curb extensions on North Bend Rd shorten the crossing distance for pedestrians, and calm traffic by visually and physically narrowing the street.

We don't talk enough about the I-65 Divide
