In this episode, we confront the realities of urban development and its impact on local communities. Peggy Daly-Masternak, coordinator of the I-475 Neighborhoods Coalition, sits down with us to discuss the group's determined fight against the proposed widening of Interstate 475 in Toledo. Peggy details the coalition's efforts to ensure that the voices of affected neighborhoods are heard, and she sheds light on the concerning issues of increased noise, pollution, and the potential for hazardous material transport.

Peeling back the layers of this complex issue, we uncover a history of urban planning decisions that have long-term consequences for city residents. Peggy provides a compelling argument against the expansion project, citing alarming data on traffic congestion, safety, and the alarming costs associated with the project. With a mix of personal stories and hard facts, this episode is a deep dive into the democratic process and the ongoing struggle for community rights in the face of large-scale infrastructure projects.
