Wedge LIVE!

Replacing I-94 with a Twin Cities Boulevard


Listen Later

John and co-host PeggySue Imihy have a conversation with Alex Burns and José Antonio Zayas Cabán -- both from Our Streets Minneapolis -- about their new endeavor to replace a 7-mile stretch of I-94 between Minneapolis and St. Paul with a Twin Cities Boulevard. We go over the environmental and economic harms of an interstate, and the opportunity to heal them. We talk about strategies to overcome the political challenges facing such an ambitious plan. We also devote nearly eight minutes to an electric car bashing segment John is calling the "EV Truther Roundtable." Learn more about the project at https://www.twincitiesboulevard.org
