Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
The Detroit News reported the $1 million grant money the city received for road construction will be used for a total reconstruction of River Drive. Is this true? I do not remember the city voting on this project. If this was approved, when was it approved?

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
Im not Tom Murphy but I hope I will do . We have not voted on this yet but was one of a few things we talked about doing with the money. One thing is clear River Drive needs it. |

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
If river drive is rehab or re const it would be cool and goodfor Lincoln Park to make a bike lane and tie it in to the “Michigan Greenways Trail”-electrical bikes are gone to be the way of transportation before we know it. |

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
River Drive definately needs it. It has got to be one of the worst roads in Lincoln Park! As far as a bike lane is concerned...I think it's a great idea. But only in theory. Too many people treat River Drive like it was their own personal I-75. Just wait until after the road is repaved...it's going to bear an uncanny resemblance to the German Autobahn!

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
Well thats for the police to take care of. Lets get the road repaved before I lose a tire. I travel that road a lot and its no wonder i need a front end alignment at least twice a year. I've seen the police sitting at river drive and mill before hiding back on mill behind some bushes. There are always people blowing thru the stop sign and I bet they caught a lot. |

I thought Greenways was dead. LP couldn't come up with the matching funds and thus they lost the grant.

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
According to our Elected Officials, we are BROKE. We have no money for matching funds and we have no money for walkways. |

Can't we raise the money when matching funds are required? Can't we get our non-profit groups involved to assist for some of this stuff? |

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
Just asking a question here but were any of the funds that were used on the two unapproved streets of Cloverlawn & Capital slated for this street? |

Re: Question for Councilman Murphy - Who approved the Riverdrive Project
I would think if a couple more stop signs were added on River Drive it would slow down the speeders (somewhat) and not use it as if it was I-75?
