"Complete Streets" in New Albany?

Once you grasp that cars are here to serve people, and not the other way around, it's a lot easier to understand how ideas like these can happen right here. After, Cincinnati isn't exactly far-off Amsterdam. I've underlined the passage below that we all might remember, just in case Kerry Stemler's and Ed Clere's tolls ever actually begins, because New Albany will be in danger of becoming Speed Thru City.  

Cincinnati moves forward with city-wide Complete Streets initiative, by John Yung (Urban Cincy blog)

... Complete Streets are regulations that allow streets to be redesigned to focus on shared use with bicycles and mass transit as well as better conditions for pedestrians. The problem in Cincinnati, and throughout much of the United States, is that people drive past what used to be viable places. The initiative, in theory, would improve conditions for many of the city’s struggling neighborhoods by reorienting them towards the users for which they were originally designed.

“We need to ensure that our neighborhood business districts are destinations and not just raceways through town for commuters,” Vice Mayor Qualls explained in a recent press release.

The standards aim to improve walkability and slow traffic in business districts. This can be done by adding on-street parking, converting one-way roads to two-way traffic, and providing connections through smaller block sizes.
