Assistant Superintendent Faces Charges After Drunken Incident

0:00It's April 3rd. This is Kansas News today, driven by AI. Neighbors in Overland Park are calling out speeding drivers on 87th Street, especially at the Woodson Drive intersection, right as the city. Rolls out his new Safe Streets plan to gather public input on safety fixes. For at least two years, folks there have been pushing the city for stop signs and crosswalks, but requests keep getting shot down, like one for A. Four ways stop and another for better pedestrian access. Kids and families feel the danger most, with 10-year-old scared to cross because cars just zoom by without stopping and parents worried about. Little ones playing near sidewalks that aren't safe. The city says they're installing a curb ramp this year to make it ADA accessible after a pedestrian study, but that doesn't guarantee a full crosswalk, and they turn down interview requests. Now with Safe Streets Live, residents have until April 30th to submit feedback online, hoping it finally sparks real changes to slow down the speed demons and protective lock.
