I live 6 miles from 96th and Zionville , entire way from home has multiuse cycling paths. my old office at 79th / Zionsville was unreachable without taking a big risk. I have actually cycled 96th -> 86th a few times and it's pretty scary. Even in a car, 96th/71st is dangerous. many bad drivers.

I assume the pedestrian hit and run on Zionsville Rd was between 71st and 96th streets. Scores of businesses and at least a dozen #IndyGo stops but that entire 3 mile stretch has only 0.2 miles of sidewalk (and that fragment is only on one side of the street). Shameful.
