Mount Vernon Avenue runs through the heart of the King-Lincoln-Bronzeville neighborhood. It is home to small stores and pharmacies, houses and a barber shop.
It s also been home to speeders and the scene of many crashes, making it dangerous at times not only for motorists, but also for pedestrians and bicyclists as the neighborhood near Downtown continues to become more popular with developers and new residents.
So the city of Columbus is embarking on a plan to make the Mount Vernon Avenue corridor safer. Over the past couple of years, we ve been concerned about crashes at some intersections and speeding in the corridor, said Reynaldo Stargell, administrator of the city s traffic management division.
