The City of Shelbyville is looking more appealing to both residents and visitors, and the city is hoping a program called Street Scape will help boost that even more. Street Scape's application was sent in Shelbyville since 2010 and Thom Schafer Streets Commissioner from the Shelbyville City Council said he thinks when all is said and done with the program, there will be many positives that comes to the city.

Another thing Shafer is focused on is the Shelbyville Bike Trail, where phase 8 is in the works, to lengthen the trail even more. Shafer said this trail will also help the city continue its plan to better Morgan Street and improve features of it.

The construction of Morgan Street will begin later this year. Shafer appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show live from our Shelbyville Studios.
