St. Petersburg Mayor Ken Welch chose the Hines-Rays team to reimagine Tropicana field and the Historic Gas Plant District. Here are the details of the proposal.
In response to more residents biking and walking during the pandemic, the Town of Chapel Hill is pursuing an experimental way to improve pedestrian safety.
The town installed its first temporary in-road ‘street path’ earlier this month. This 6-foot wide pathway is marked off with tape, traffic cones and signage and stretches from Cedar Falls Park to the Booker Creek Greenway via Honeysuckle Road and Booker Creek Road.
Chapel Hill Mayor Pam Hemminger recently spoke to 97.9 The Hill’s Brighton McConnell about the town’s desire to try out the idea.
“We’ve noticed that people are out and about more, either by bike, by jogging, or by foot,” Hemminger said. “And we want to have some safer ways for them to do that since there’s no sidewalks in that part of the neighborhood.”
