City council members in Wichita moved to make downtown traffic safer and more pedestrian-friendly on Tuesday. “That’s the goal,” said Council Member Jeff Blubaugh. “There’s going to be more livability downtown, so we’ve got to be able to ensure that we are providing the safest route.” Council approved $460,000 to get started on a project to make changes to roadways off Douglas Avenue downtown. Areas like Topeka and Main could eventually change from one-way traffic to two-way near 1st and 2nd streets with the plan.
