A local group wants to replace I-75 through Northern Kentucky’s neighborhoods with what they are calling an “urban boulevard.”
The urban boulevard would consist of space for multiple forms of transit, according to People Over Pavement, a Devou Good Foundation program.
The reimagined boulevard, which the group is calling Willow Run Boulevard, would replace I-75 with multiple forms of transportation, according to a flyer left at homes in Covington this week.
The moniker is inspired by the former Willow Run Creek, which once ran through Kenney Shields and Goebel Parks, the flyer says.
“This vision will be shaped by the community as we continue to collect feedback through door-knocking and advocacy,” the flyer reads.
The change would, according to the group, “free up space for higher purposes like creating affordable housing, grocery stories, and local small businesses.”
