Former Knoxville Mayor Ashe Weighs in on Greenway Progress

Former mayor Ashe cites greenway project as "Endlessly delayed."



Expect Pavlis to be vice mayor | Shopper-News:

■ The endlessly delayed opening of the Buck Karnes greenway along the Tennessee River has now been delayed to sometime before the end of the year, according to city spokesperson Eric Vreeland. Earlier greenway coordinator Lori Goerlich had said it would occur before Thanksgiving. No word on whether there will be a formal opening or ribbon cutting. The greenway itself has been completed for six months at a cost of $1.6 million but not announced by the city.

Note that the Greenway will have a ribbon cutting on December 15.



I'd like to know what exactly went wrong with this project that delayed its opening so significantly?
