Ep 1: The Case of Disappearing Sidewalks29 Nov 202500:14:01

Ever taken a short walk only to find the sidewalk suddenly ends, leaving you on grass, near traffic, or completely stranded?

In this episode, we explore the curious case of disappearing sidewalks and the reasons behind them—from suburban design and jurisdiction gaps to ADA compliance and safety concerns. We’ll hear real stories from communities that faced these challenges and discover how some cities successfully fixed the problem. Whether you walk, bike, or just want safer streets, join us as we dig into why sidewalks vanish and what can be done to bring them back.
