Shelby Farms Summary


Via Smart City Memphis, here is a very good summary of the compromise over roads in Shelby Farms, with some suggestions for moving ahead to deal with the remaining traffic problems.

I've always wondered by why Shelby Farms can't have an enormous ring road placed around it, sort of like a traffic roundabout. You elevate parts of the road for wildlife to move through but only have a few entrances off the ring road into the Farm. Put enormous berms around it to minimise traffic visibility and noise.

It's a thought.
