Eight More Miles - The Louisville Metro District 8 Podcast

Episode 13 - Jeff Brown: Where All Roads Lead

Episode Summary

55. That's the number Jeff Brown and his team at Public Works waits for. Every road in Louisville - all 4500 lane miles - is ranked from 0 to 100, in terms of quality and need for repair. Once a road reaches 55, it's in need of attention. Roads go through natural life cycles, so not all roads will be perfect at the time - but Jeff and his team strive to make sure all roads (and sidewalks, and bike lanes) are as close to cared for as possible. He and Councilman Coan talk through District 8 road projects, alleys, and of course, the ever-present debate on bettering public transportation.
