The meeting, held at the Bay View branch of the Milwaukee Public Library, was so full of attendees that it was standing-room only."It's amazing to see this much support and I know a lot of people unfortunately have similar stories," said Drinkard.People like Kathy Walter, who has lived near the intersection where Corder was hit for three decades, are speaking out."[Cara's accident] was a carbon copy of what happened to me, but I didn't get hurt so badly." Walter says five years ago she was crossing the street at Kinninick and Rusk avenues, just like Corder, when a driver hit her and drove off."It seems to be getting worse," Walter said.Monday night's meeting offered several options for traffic calming measures on that stretch like speed tables, curb extensions, refuge islands and more. After gathering public input, the city's Department of Public Works will bring its findings to the state Department of Transportation for next steps and funding."Sitting on my front porch now and hearing the cars, it sounds like I live on a racetrack," said Drinkard. "And it has a deeper meaning now and it makes me feel so sad to hear it."The city is hoping to break ground on the project in 2026.Its about time to watch on your time.
