NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Nashville Mayor Karl Dean has appointed a citizen advisory committee to help make the city more friendly to pedestrians and bicyclists.
The Tennessean reported Dean has also added a bike and pedestrian coordinator to his staff.
Dean told the newspaper better accommodation of walkers and bike riders is part of how Nashville could be transformed into a "really livable world-class city."
City plans already in place call for about 300 new miles of sidewalks and 400 additional miles of bikeways by 2016.
But Prevention magazine ranked cities by walkability last winter and Nashville was 444th on the list. By comparison, Memphis ranked 73rd.

I doubt it, they are too busy thinking of ways to stop the 3 people riding the wrong way on the streets.
Don't throw de stones
They'd just as soon throw de stones in those three people's faces.
