trymahjong Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 from Cohens enewsletter Council Member Cohen joined Mayor Parker and the Midtown Redevelopment Authority to announce the first Greenroads Project in Texas. The project, located in District C, has achieved Silver Certification for its high level of sustainability. Bagby St. between St. Joseph's Parkway and Tuam St, as well as Pierce St. between Baldwin St. and Brazos St, are being revitalized as 'Complete Streets,' which emphasize the need for safe transit for pedestrians, bike riders, and public transportation users, as well as motorists. The project will utilize regional and recycled materials in its construction and will also feature the installation of rain gardens, artistic elements, and LED lighting.

kylejack Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The only thing bagby is missing is a lane for bikes. Yep, would like to see that. Though I always use it when I ride from Downtown to Montrose, and I have found that the traffic calming features have made it a pretty rideable street.
