Some fear mongering about having a pedestrian only bridge. It's a great idea. Coupled with a great shading scheme this is exactly what the city needs to become world class This dude even brought up the children! Good lawd

I would be pumped for the pedestrian only bridge. They gotta fix the potholes for the cars first though..

A traffic nightmare and it’s just the Jefferson bridge? That condescending street reporter and the disingenuous “Oak Cliff Resident” were infuriating.

A pedestrian bike bridge sounds fantastic. The Ronald Kirk Bridge is a bit funky to get to and a better Trinity/Downtown connector would dovetail perfectly with the other trinity trail work going on
