Its dangerous – North Monroe between John Knox and Old Bainbridge averages about 1.5 traffic fatalities per year even more than West Tennessee and Capital Circle East.

TONY, Beppo’s right on this one. Infrastructure monies from the fed aren’t really anything new, or scandalous.

Everything doesn’t have to be a partisan fight, y’know.

Oh, and a dildo emporium on the road to you capitol is a bad look. There are two of them on the way as you pass derelict buildings and shuffling drug addicts just casually strolling in the median. The entrance to the state capitol is a sh*t show. From the south, it’s poverty and ruin. From the east, it’s nothing until you come across a failed Burger King (how does that happen near a major shopping destination and a high school?), run down buildings, empty lots and businesses, and yet another genital jamboree retail spot. At least the derelict and crumbling hotel has been demolished…

@ EPW ……. Hustler of Hollywood is not an issue, it is far off the road up on a hill with lots of trees around it. Only the Prudes have an issue with it. I have never gone there and don’t need to go there to know it is not an issue.

A better option would be to improve traffic flow from thomasville to monroe (via 7th), as that is a far nicer entry to the city. I dont know if there is any saving Monroe.

As long as we have a Hustler smut shop with homeless guys using filthy rabbit puppets to panhandle as one of the first things people see on their way to the capitol from I-10, the sidewalks won’t matter at all.

No.Monroe St: Major entrance to Tallahassee from I-10, and it looks seedy. Upgrading sidewalks and intersections might help. More important is removing the homeless/crime element. Just relocating the problem to MidTown… is State and Local funds wasted .

Not mentioned here is the FACT these funds come from the Biden Administration’s infrastructure legislation.
