Savannah receives funding for 1-16 flyover ramp
removal
It was announced Tuesday morning that U.S. Senator Jon
Ossoff will be giving bipartisan infrastructure law funding
to help upgrade transportation and recreation infrastructure
for families in Savannah. Today, News 3 talked with a
Savannah local about the community prior to the installation
and ongoing construction on the 1-16 flyover.
In the 1920s, what is now known as Martin Luther King
Jr. BLVD.was a thriving community where many Black
professionals lived and worked, but when the 1-16 flyover
was built, many were displaced. Now the city is righting a
wrong by taking a $1.8 million grant to start the process of
removal and reunification.
Beauty shops, restaurants, theaters, and a beautiful
historic train station called Union Station all stood near
the 1-16 flyover ramp when it was built in the 1960s. The
flyover ramp construction demolished two full city blocks
and Richard Shinhoster the man whose brother the ramp is
named after says the community just never recovered after
the construction.
Georgia Southern ROTC instructor killed in crash
Many are celebrating the life of a ROTC instructor at
Georgia Southern University who passed away after a
motorcycle crash.
Master Sgt. Chris Decker was a Senior Military Science
Instructor for the Eagle Battalion at GSU.
Wednesday night, family and friends gathered at the
Tailgate Sports Bar and Grill in Savannah.
The owner said he got a call Wednesday night saying
some of friends and family were hoping to hold a celebration
of life for Decker at the Tailgate Sports Bar and Grill,
something he immediately said yes to and started working
to put together.
He started printing out any photos of Decker that he could
find on social media, laying them out on a table for people
to see.
He says originally, he was told only about 10-15 people
would come, but that number ended up reaching about 25-
30.
Although he didn’t know Decker personally, he says he
could tell how much he was loved based on the number of
people that came out to honor him and the stories that were
told.
He said being able to provide Decker’s friends and family
with a place to remember him, was an honor in itself.
