Why's There A Green Light At My Walk Signal?
from The Curiosity Desk · host GBH News
First up, Edgar talks “concurrent signaling” – when the walk sign coincides with a green light – and how it can complicate getting around the city for people with disabilities (and plenty without). He’ll sit down with GBH’s Meghan Smith and disability rights advocate Casandra Xavier. Next up, following new penny-rounding guidance from the Division of Standards, we meet DOS Commissioner Dave Rodrigues to talk about the rules & what exactly goes on in his corner of state government. Lastly, all this hot weather is complicating spring gardening / planting season. Debbie Merriam from the Wakefield Arboretum returns to take listener calls and texts for “Ask the Gardener."
