Addition photos of traffic violence in this location in past three years. Even these concrete barriers can’t protect pedestrians and cyclists against traffic.

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.

Nice of city officials and IMPD to finally wake up and take notice to what the public has been screaming about for 5+ years now: IMPD’s refusal to do traffic enforcement combined with our overbuilt infrastructure have made our streets unsafe.

During a targeted traffic enforcement in the area, IMPD officers clocked drivers going upwards of 68 to 74 mph, more than 30 mph over the posted 45 mph speed limit.

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.

Vision Zero will live or die based on how much it is prioritized by the next Mayor.
We can’t afford years more of disinterest if we want Vision Zero to succeed.

He sat down with me for his first on air interview to talk about his vision for the city, as well as his successes and controversies on the council. Tune in to WISH-TV at 4, 5, and 6.
