Why are sidewalks absent from some roads TARC has routes?
Many of the streets in Louisville were developed without sidewalks some were planned to be added later and some streets were developed without sidewalks at the desire of the individual property owner. Regardless of the presence of sidewalks, many people still need to travel via transit to these areas. For this reason many TARC routes follow streets without sidewalks. TARC works with transportation engineers and private property owners to add sidewalks, but it is not ultimately TARCs decision as to where sidewalks are located.
