LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Sept. 17, 2024) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of the completion of the KY 22 (Brownsboro Road) and Springcrest Drive intersection improvement project. As of today, Sept. 17, at 5 p.m., the roadway will be fully reopened to traffic, providing safety and operational improvements for drivers and pedestrians.

 LOUISVILLE, Ky. (September 18, 2024) – Meet Nyasi (nee-YAH-see)!
Nyasi means “grass” in Swahili language. Giraffe inhabit the tall savanna grasslands of sub-Saharan Africa.
The Louisville Zoo asked fans and advocates to participate in naming its male giraffe calf, and the people have spoken. Neary 4,000 votes were cast from individuals throughout Kentucky and southern Indiana as well as 38 states plus the district of Columbia during a two-week voting period, with Nyasi emerging as the favorite by an 8-vote margin. This name was selected from three options that reflected both the calf’s spirited personality and the native habitats of Masai giraffes.
The Zoo welcomed Nyasi into the family on August 9, 2024. He is the offspring of doting mother, 7-year-old, Kianga, and towering father, 8-year-old Baridi.
The giraffe family can be seen daily in the giraffe yard. Guests can also watch the trio bond behind-the-scenes on the Zoo’s giraffe camera at louisvillezoo.org/giraffecam.
About Masai Giraffes
Masai giraffes, native to East Africa, are the largest subspecies of giraffe. They are distinguished by their irregular, star-shaped spots which are like a fingerprint and unique to each individual animal. The International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species categorizes giraffes as vulnerable. Masai giraffe populations have declined by more than 50 percent in last 30 years due to habitat loss and poaching. The Louisville Zoo is committed to the conservation of this essential, iconic species through education, breeding programs, and support of preservation efforts in the wild.
 The Louisville Audubon Society asks for your help in protecting birds during peak Fall migration – September to the end of October – simply by turning off all non-essential lights from 11:00 p.m. - 6:00 a.m. Because most birds migrate at night, orienting themselves in darkness to navigate by the moon and stars, bright lights from city glow attracts and disorients them and increases their vulnerability to collisions with buildings or exposure to additional daytime hazards later. An estimated 1 billion birds die annually from building collisions. You can help dramatically reduce the hazards from light pollution for nocturnally migrating birds by turning off all non-essential lighting. To learn more visit lightsoutlouisville.org
