Seconds Matter: Genoa Safety Services Rennovation

By: Justin Nguyen

           Genoa’s Police and Fire Department share the same building, and they share the rest of the land with construction housing and a very popular park. One thing that they all have in common is the use of two exits in and out of the facilities. This leads to traffic that hinders the emergency responders time that it takes to get to the situation. With an added exit, this will allow the responders to be able to leave more efficiently. This small difference in travel time could be the difference of someone living or dying.

Bike Lanes for North Campus*

With a growing population of cyclists on the Ohio State Main Campus, it is becoming increasingly important for both the bicyclists and the pedestrians that share the campus with them to have safe and defined spaces for each of them to travel. This project outlines a plan to add four bike lanes to the North Campus Area to increase the safety and efficiency of this mode of transportation.

Looking Forward: A Simple Addition to the Transit Model

Today’s transit model has a number of problems, but none are as large as its inherently limited service area. It is this that causes the bus transit network to have poor service in lower density neighborhoods, which can lead to poverty if the inhabitants cannot get to work. But as self driving cars become more viable, they can be incorporated into the existing transit model cheaply and easily. In my Vlog, I propose a small addition to the current bus transit model as used by Columbus that will allow more people to reliably use existing transit to get to work.

From the Ashes: Phoenix Apartments

In the town of Sunbury Ohio, there lies an abandoned factory where the Nestle company used to be.  For the years after it closed its doors, it has sat empty.  The factory closing had an obvious negative effect on the town of Sunbury, but Sunbury has come a long way since then.  That’s why this proposal is to turn the old factory and build an apartment complex on this land.  It will be called Phoenix Apartments, and it will provide many benefits to the town of Sunbury, and will help Sunbury rise from the ashes the factory left when it shut down.
