As someone who previously lived in an apartment on Cannon Ridge Drive, just down the road from Shannondale, this is a huge mistake to be adding multiple units to this property without the presence of a red light on Tazewell Pike. The only red lights we have are at the 4 way intersection of Jacksboro/Tazewell Pike and there is not another one until you get to the cross streets of Murphy/Tazewell Pike. Tazewell Pike already gets too much traffic as it is—-ask anyone trying to pull out at Beverly Road or Briercliff Road at 4:30-5:30 pm on any given day, as well as the morning, lunchtime or any other conceivable time of the day. Adding this development without assessing the traffic patterns and adding a red light to this overly stressed road is negligent and dangerous. I don’t think this should be done, at all.
