Courier-Journal reports, “Two national publications collide head-on with Louisville’s most recent transportation pride and joy — remaking Spaghetti Junction and building new interstate bridges. The Vox headline sets the tone: ‘Louisville’s “Spaghetti Junction” is a testament to how cars degrade cities,’ with the subhead: ‘Doubling down on auto infrastructure, Kentucky-style.” Another publication, Streetsblog, this week concluded Louisville ‘has been making the same mistakes for 60 years’ under a blog headlined: ‘With Louisville’s Gargantuan New Interchange Comes a Profound Loss.’” The Courier-Journal article adds, “The main point of both pieces is how interstates that run right through cities can divide them in negative and consequential ways.”
