The story is about two questions:
– Will KY Transportation Cabinet the violate the Commerce Clause of the US Constitution by closing to pedestrians the Clark Memorial bridge?
– Will mayor Fischer take a stand for a walkable, sustainable, healthy, pedestrian friendly Louisville?
The merging of bicycles with cars & trucks on the bridge is a wonderful idea. It will result in calmer/slower/safer traffic. Another irony…this morning there was a head-on collision on the bridge. Traffic needs to be calmed.
