I'm a home health nurse and use to actually see patients in their home (I sit on my duff in an office now) and have gone into homes in those "seedy" areas. I agree with you 100% - "hilarious" is what I would say as well. Crime happens in Mayberry for pete's sake.... Lexington is hardly a hotbed of crime.
Maybe you know the answer to this easydoesit? Aren't there talks of expanding Man O'War in some way? Also, do you know what the concrete sidewalk appearing thing on New Circle Rd is? I didn't vote for our newest mayor, but he does appear to be tackling traffic as a major issue... which is good of course.

I don't know anything about the Man O' War extension. They talked about expanding Harrodsburg Rd. -- from Palomar to Jessamine Co. -- a LONG time before they did it. Long time as in 8-10 years from I what I recall. We lived to close to it so we heard the stories for years. I don't think it would solve the problem of so many stoplights
. Next time drive out to Hamburg via Man O' War from the other side of town and count the # of lights and how often you have to stop.
I don't know about the New Circle thing either. Which part of New Circle is it near? I have been away for a couple of months. I know they have been doing a lot of bike initiative type plans in an attempt to be more like Madison. Since I haven't seen it, I am not sure if that could be the reason behind it. Clays Mill (another route that has become unfit for the amount of travel it receives) is being dug up so bike lanes can be added.
