Savannah seeks input on Tide to Town path on Montgomery Cross Road

Montgomery Cross Road is one of Savannah’s most dangerous thoroughfares. The crash rate on the corridor is 87% higher than the state average, and the injury rate is 79% higher. There is also danger for bikers and pedestrians. There were four pedestrian-related crashes between 2021 to 2025, with one resulting in a fatality. The corridor also saw 14 bike crashes and 11 injuries in the same span. But the City of Savannah is seeking to change that. The city is looking to bring the Tide to Town trail to Montgomery Cross Road and along with it, additional safety improvements for all types of transport. The city held a public engagement meeting on that vision last week that drew over 100 residents. “It’s really about getting your feedback and your engagement about how we can use these dollars that are already allocated,” said Savannah City Manager Jay Melder in a nod to the $10 million hotel-motel tax revenues devoted to Tide to Town. Background: Savannah cuts the ribbon on latest phase of Tide to Town network An online survey, paired with the city's presentation from the Oct. 20 meeting, is available online for residents to provide input through Nov. 4.
