Paul Chambers🚧<p>Group proposes alternative idea to highway with 'urban boulevards' for I-71/75 corridor through <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/NorthernKentucky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NorthernKentucky</span></a> neighborhoods and into <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/Cincinnati" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cincinnati</span></a> instead of the Brent Spence Corridor Project, a $3.6 billion plan that includes widening I-71/75 to 16 lanes.</p><p>They want through traffic to use alternative routes and transform 1-71/75 into an urban, transit boulevard, rebuilding the highway to expand greenspace and tree cover, reconnect neighborhoods, create space for affordable housing, grocery stores, and local businesses, improve air quality, and provide accessible, sustainable transportation throughout the corridor. <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/Ohio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ohio</span></a> <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/Kentucky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kentucky</span></a> </p><p>Lovely idea but I don't know how this will shuttle people downtown and back home for work. Mass transit from the Ohio and Northen KY burbs to various points in Cincinnati seems the better alternative. A true mass transit solution. </p><p>🔗 <a href="https://www.wcpo.com/news/northern-kentucky/group-proposes-alternative-idea-to-highway-with-urban-boulevards-for-i-71-75-corridor" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">wcpo.com/news/northern-kentuck</span><span class="invisible">y/group-proposes-alternative-idea-to-highway-with-urban-boulevards-for-i-71-75-corridor</span></a></p><p>🔗 People Over Pavement — Greater Cincinnati Coalition for Transit and Sustainable Development <a href="https://www.sustainablecincy.org/initiatives/people-over-pavementurban" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">sustainablecincy.org/initiativ</span><span class="invisible">es/people-over-pavementurban</span></a> boulevards</p>
