Please look at the Intersection of Boyds Creek and Old Knoxville Hwy and ESPECIALLY Boyds Creek and Hodges Bend. Thank you!

Once again, I am dismayed that there is little to no regional transportation planning; no rail, no bus, no park-and-rides or any other alternative to the one-person-in-one-vehicle mode.

Whatever you called the modernization of traffic signaling and increasing the flow of traffic?is very needed along our major thoroughfares.

As far as Knoxville traffic, I-40/I-75 is a challenge. Hopefully there are plans for that.

Many other improvements are needed?on Montvale Road, Morganton Road, and awkward or unsafe intersections all over the map.

In summary, please repair, improve, and maintain the roads we already have, before you consider laying down new asphalt along a route where a highway is not needed.

On behalf of the University of Tennessee (UT), we would like to submit for consideration a project to improve the intersection of Melrose Place and Lake Avenue (see attached map). We understand this project would involve a partnership between the city of Knoxville and UT since this area involves both parties. Improving this intersection would greatly enhance both vehicular and pedestrian safety and flow so we hope this will be seriously considered.

There should be transit projects bringing transit to the Rocky Hill neighborhood, where there has been none since the 90 was discontinued. Kat says 80 % of Knoxville residents live within half a mile from a Kat stop, but I am well outside that range.

More generally the lion's share of the projects are road projects. When are are you going to start taking climate change seriously by investing resources in modes that do not involve cars? They are a major source of green house emissions that must be dealt with.

The intersection of Hickory Creek Road & Palestine Lane & Watt Road needs to be realigned and signaled due to increased semi-truck traffic based on new trucking terminals being approved and built. GPS apps are routing people through Hickory Creek Road when I 40/75 backs up. Please consider adding this project.

I am interested in the Anita Avenue/Hillwood Drive project at the south end of the South Knoxville bridge. The road is heavily traveled and extremely narrow with ditches on both sides. The city has had plans to straighten it and connect with Island Home Avenue at South Haven for more than a decade. The road is dangerous and funds should be spent to fix the problem (either straighten it or widen it).
