For decades, at speeds of sometimes more than 70 mph, drivers (lots of teenagers) sped down Jupiter Drive, hit the intersection at Brockbank, and flew through the air before landing, sometimes in neighbors' yards, and once smack up against a construction dumpster. David Baird, chair of the Mt. Olympus Community Council, has worked for years for a solution that would bring an end to the dangerous activity. In this video, David and the Mayor celebrate the beginning of construction that will be the end of airborne automobiles at this location.
