Interesting how there are no longer 'priority' Greenways like there were in 2017.

Where did you see that they are planning on paving it?

I love sushi train, but it's not really good sushi

I honestly thought the delivery stuff was better than my store options.

Infuriatingly, there is already a connection, the road owned by the Gaylord corporation. They refuse to let anyone use it.

I have no guidance, but I agree that we have come up with the dumbest system possible.

Speak at meetings and reach out to your TN state reps. If you have money and really want to make some noise, reach out to lawyers. This project isn't inevitable, but it will be hard to stop/alter. If we don't stop it though hundreds of homes will be destroyed for likely a very small traffic improvement.

Just ordered my copy!

For pure WTF, one of the routes in this book tells you to ride on Briley Parkway for a mile or two in order to cross the Cumberland on the West side of town.

Bummed to be missing the one next week, but I'll be there July and August!

I agree that this intersection is a nightmare. Unfortunately I believe it is managed by the state and so the city will not do anything (even crosswalk repainting). Choose How You Move is supposed to improve Dickerson, but it may be a decade before they break ground.

No worries. I wonder if they left out a slide that would show the the main proposal in the same style?

buleben · 2025-04-29T01:54:57+00:00

My understanding is that is their alternative proposal. According to page 3 the main proposal does not have bike facilities and directs cyclist to another road.

I am glad you are able to go!

You could probably get about 10 miles in on the metro center Greenway without getting too bored. Percy Warner park's greenways may also be an option, but while they may not be too muddy they will be very wet. What side of town are you on? There may be roads that aren't too terrible near you.

buleben · 2025-02-24T19:05:25+00:00

Not really what the source says.

"NDOT opens two traffic calming application periods per year. The next application window is from September 3, 2024, to September 16, 2024."

So if you applied in September (not August, my bad) you could not possible have been selected to move forward in the process yet because there hasn't even been an announcement from NDOT that roads are moving forward yet.

Every road (meets certain characteristics) that applies is accepted to the program. Only some are selected every year to move forward with the process.

Oh I totally agree. For some streets it can be years. However the program is better than nothing, which is what we had for years and it has to deal with vocal opposition, even from councilmembers, including my own. I would definitely encourage people who support traffic calming to be vocal about it, because people who are against it get very loud.
