Crews begin construction on crosswalk at Culebra, Callaghan roads intersection

SAN ANTONIO – Crews began work on a much-needed crosswalk at the intersection of Culebra and Callaghan roads on the city’s West Side on Monday, after more than a year of planning by city leaders.

Many residents who live in the area said there are always people darting across the street because there’s not a crosswalk nearby. City leaders are hoping that will soon change.

Along with the crosswalk, the city will add a directional island in the driveway of the Westway Apartment complex, to stop drivers from making a left turn in or out of the driveway.

Construction could take three to four weeks.
