The survey on Magnolia Avenue intersection improvements is still open! https://www.knoxvilletn.gov/cms/One.aspx?portalId=109562&pageId=21266490

We're excited to move ahead on safety improvements on Magnolia Avenue, funded by USDOT grants. Intersections at Cherry (shown), Hembree, and Castle streets have been identified as priorities due to a notably high incidence of severe crashes and pedestrian activity. We want to hear from neighbors, shoppers, workers and other visitors in this corridor.

• Take the survey online (link in first comment)
