The Memphis Flyer recently posted two stories concerning the Greenline. One focusing on safety concerns that were addressed at the public forums earlier this month, with another discussing the future of the project.
The Memphis Flyer:
Shelby County mayor A C Wharton, representatives from area law enforcement, and several county commissioners attended the meeting at the Central Library, as well as more than a hundred local residents, some of them cyclists and walkers and some of them residents with homes adjacent to the CSX property.
"The trail will not open until we have a comprehensive security plan in place," Wharton told those assembled. "This is more to this than just saying, let's get a trail. This is going to bring neighbors together. ... it's about connecting citizens to sidewalks instead of sofa.”
