Many neighbors have likely experienced the challenge of crossing Greenville at Vickery when walking to Terilli’s, Christie’s, or Dodie’s. Traffic tends to be heavy and the valet stands add to the chaos.

The good news is that change is coming! According to District 14 City Councilperson Paul Ridley’s office, the city will be installing a flashing crosswalk at that intersection.

To provide a bit of history, Ridley’s office originally requested the upgraded crosswalk over two years ago. The city’s Dept. of Transportation and Public Works (TPW) approved the upgrade in August 2024, but unfortunately the actual installation was never scheduled. TPW apologized for the oversight and committed to providing Ridley’s office with an installation timeline by Friday, 6 June 2025.
