They still refuse to add a stoplight. But now DOT has succumbed to pressure to make some safety changes here where teenagers drive, and where the road is fast.
Claire was struck and killed on Georgia Avenue in April, near the place where her husband, Robert, also lost his life in 2016.
Two more pairs were also put up to remember Etsegenet Hurissa, who was killed in 2011, and Victor Ramos, who was killed in 2009.
The memorials are part of UN Global Road Safety week. This year’s theme is “streets for life.”
Members of the community and elected leaders came together to remember the victims and call for safety changes, such as lowering speed limits.
If you can, please say aloud the names Robert and Claire Grossman, husband and wife, who were killed as pedestrians at the same intersection, Georgia Ave and Rippling Brook Drive, separated by 5 years. Robert was 64 when he died 10/24/2016. Claire, 63, died 4/28/2021. pic.twitter.com/aO8DFtJyXE Sunil Dasgupta (he/him) (@sunildasgupta4) May 23, 2021
Uniquely dangerous East Price Hill intersection must be fixed, advocates say

CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Darlene Smith was in the process of turning at the intersection of Glenway Avenue and Quebec Road in East Price Hill on Nov. 27 when she got hit.
Months later, memories of the crash still haunt her.
“That day was very traumatic,” she said. “I have issues now with even getting in the car, because I am like. Is something going to happen? Is something going to happen?”

drink more than 16 ounces, we ll all be thin. i think bloomberg is saying this is kind of stupid. if the drink is bigger than your head, maybe it s too much. look, i think we re overreacting a little bit about it. not what he s doing. i think what he s doing is great. being angry about it is a bad idea. for me, he s willing to do something about it. this is a serious crisis that we re all going to pick up the tab for. it s like putting up a crosswalk at a dangerous intersection. you can still have a soda but you re better off doing it in smaller increments. isn t it sort of a band-aid on the whole problem of obesity? here s the thing, i can t buy more than 16 ounces anymore in new york come next year but i can buy two 12 ounces. you can pour it in one of these? exactly. what does it really solve? it doesn t really solve the problem. the point is that sugar is addictive. we all know that. you wouldn t give somebody with a drinking problem one glass and say you know what?
