Send us a textI'm sharing an episode from my other podcast, History Reinvented, here because 1), it's about a bridge--an historic bridge in Richmond, Virginia that is about to go through a major rebuild. And 2), it's the last episode of that series and I want to make sure everyone checks it out and listens to the other episodes in the series. In this episode, I hangout with Richard Hankins, Executive Director of Partnership for Smarter Growth, who are invested in making sure the updated Mayo Bridge is equitable for everyone–not just cars, but bicyclists, pedestrians, people who fish, and buses — and they want to help make sure there’s access to what will be a new and improved Mayo Island.History Reinvented is a two part podcast series that takes you on a trip around the Mayo Bridge and Mayo Island in Richmond Virginia, from its early beginnings to what the future holds for this historic part of the city’s Landscape. If you’re a sponsor who may be interested in helping me produce other episodes on the History and Future of Richmond or want to sponsor this podcast, then please do reach out. I’d love to tell more stories like these.Be sure to check out Ian’s World O’ Music show on Mixcloud.
