8664

I mostly deal with bike issues here, well..., because I like bikes. That said, there are some other valuable transportation movements afoot here in the 'Ville. Broken Sidewalk has two posts with 2 excellent video renderings (I, II) made by the 8664 group, which is a group working very hard to keep the State from building a 23-lane highway monstrosity which would engulf the entire area just east of downtown. Instead, they envision tearing down I-64, which cuts across the face of downtown at the riverfront, and instead building a ground level boulevard, one which is well-integrated into the existing Waterfront Park. Their videos are persuasive.

If you're a 'Ville resident or not, it's worth a look.
