the following are some more projects (some pending - some already complete):
 * federal safe routes to school funding is being used to improve the greenway crossings over stinson, arlington, and wappoo roads; the original project only included wappoo road but other crossings are now going to be included in the project!  
 * at the request of a neighborhood, charleston county is constructing sidewalks on campbell and timmerman drives to the greenway with new crossing treatments.
 * the city of charleston also just put in a new crossing over coburg drive after a citizen request.
 * and a sidewalk was added from savannah highway to the greenway along coburg drive - next to the new harris teeter!
