Get an Update on City Road Projects and Learn About the Start-Up Weekend on Wednesdays With Winnecke [Audio]

Today's show with Mayor Lloyd Winnecke included two special guests discussing a couple very important topics for Evansville...our city streets, and creating new businesses.

First we had city engineer Pat Keepes come on to talk about the upcoming public road meetings that give citizens the chance to let city officials know what streets and roads need attention. Next meeting is tomorrow (Thursday) morning from 9am-11am at the C.K. Newsome Community Center. Pat also gives us an update on some upcoming projects including the Oak Hill project, adding a turn lane at Washington and Weinbach and the pedestrian bridge at the Lloyd and Vann.
