ADOPT A PET
Whitman is the VHS’ longest resident. He has spent all of 2019 as the Clinic cat while the VHS team tried to determine the causes of his allergies. He even went to a dermatologist in Louisville, and he lost one of his eyes from the severe scratching & ulceration due to the itching (even with an Elizabethan collar on 24/7.) The verdict was that he will need prescription food & minor oral meds for the rest of his life. It’s a bit more of a monthly expense, but not terrible! (Probably about $150.) Whitman still deserves a home and a family that can care for him. He is well-loved by the VHS team. His adoption fee is only $40 and includes his neuter, microchip, vaccines, and a multitude of medical tests, surgeries, & procedures already done by VHS. Contact Vanderburgh Humane at (812) 426-2563 for adoption details!

Greenway patrols
The Evansville Police Department has increased patrols along the Greenway Passage this summer. The increased presence, especially in areas not accessible by car, is being funded by a federal grant.Â
Officers are providing the increased presence using all-terrain vehicles, bike patrol, and on foot. The increased patrols will continue through August and into late summer.Â
In addition to preventing crime, officers are identifying public safety issues and providing safety tips to passage users.Â
Traffic Alert: New Lane Restrictions, Lane Closures on Veterans Memorial ParkwayÂ
Traffic Alert:Â New Lane Restrictions, Lane Closures on Veterans Memorial Parkway
(Lane restrictions starting Monday, August 19, lane closures starting Monday, August 26)
(Evansville, IN) – Drivers traveling along Veterans Memorial Parkway through the traffic control zone immediately southeast of the Waterworks Road intersection will experience minor changes near the eastbound lane work area starting next week and more significant changes in the following week.
Beginning Monday, August 19, after 9 a.m., Deig Brothers will shift the concrete barriers and traffic cones to restrict eastbound traffic into the passing lane only and create the necessary space for the concrete pavement restoration work in the driving lane.
The shift in the lane restriction will make it feel tighter for motorists driving through the area, and traffic will be within inches of construction workers restoring the pavement. This is why drivers are again reminded to observe the reduced speed limits in place, which will be enforced.
The restricted width will remain in place until Thursday, August 22, 2019, when the concrete is cured and the traffic controls can be shifted back to the current lane width while the asphalt shoulder restoration occurs.
A more significant traffic control plan will be implemented beginning Monday, August 26, as the current zone will be expanded to restrict traffic to one lane in both directions on Veterans Memorial Parkway to accommodate necessary work for two Evansville Water and Sewer Utility projects.
The sewer rehabilitation project work will continue as Deig Brothers shift into an access structure in the median. Blankenberger Brothers (BBI) will also soon begin road work associated with the Waterworks Road Relocation project for the creation of an auxiliary left turn lane and new intersection improvements.
Traffic patterns will be modified to create a larger and safer work zone with the closure of both passing lanes adjacent to the median. This is the first of multiple traffic control phases for the Waterworks Road Relocation project, and additional details for that project will be forthcoming.
The picture below shows drivers traveling along Veterans Memorial Parkway through the 0.50-mile traffic control zone. The red-striped area indicates where the concrete barriers and traffic cones will be located beginning Monday, August 19, through Thursday, August 22, 2019.
