Event Description/Abstract
Transportation projects do more than connect people, they provide opportunities to connect cultures. Explore how media production was incorporated as unique mitigation in two projects to address the cultural history of two different geographic areas. Participants will learn of the successes and challenges in producing the Cultural Audio Tours for the INDOT-sponsored I-69 project and the video documentary for the historically African American “Foot” Neighborhood as part of the Missouri DOT-sponsored Rex Whitton Expressway.
