Jaeqwan Buck of the Maggie L. Walker Dragons charges forward during the team’s 12-0 victory over Armstrong at the Armstrong Walker Football Classic Legacy Project at Armstrong High School.

Construction crews repaved Leigh Street from Myers Street to North Allen Avenue, just be- hind the Science Museum, on Monday, Dec. 2, 2024. The work was expected to be completed in time for the Christmas Parade, which begins at the Science Museum, providing an alternate travel route while Broad Street is closed. The repaving precedes plans to reorganize bike lanes as part of two new quick-build bike lane projects announced by the Department of Public Works on Nov. 14. These projects, part of the city’s Vision Zero initiative, aim to improve roadway safety and access.
