There’s more news about Sixth Street reopening to weekend traffic, and we’re breaking it down today on the Friday News Roundup, along with other stories that caught our eye. Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by Hey Austin newsletter editor Kelsey Bradshaw and executive producer Eva Ruth Moravec to also discuss local layoffs at the Alamo Drafthouse, next week’s winter weather, and our plans for the weekend and MLK Day. Plus, for more on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s impact on Austin, check out our recent interview with East Austin historian Harrison Eppright.
