The Austin Transportation Department and Austin Public Works implemented new upgrades to the intersection of Barton Skyway and Spyglass Drive, alongside the Barton Creek Greenbelt trailhead. Projects were focused on efforts to increase safety at the intersection with new crosswalks, increased visibility of lane markings and improved signage. Additionally, the entrance to the greenbelt trailhead was marked with colored polka dots. The recent improvements come in addition to previous city projects to improve safety at the busy intersection, including extending curbs.
