Greenville – A busy Greenville intersection will be staying as is. The four-way stop signs will remain at the intersection of Stonewall and Stanford Streets.

The Greenville City Council voted Tuesday to pass an ordinance calling for the crossing to be regulated as a four-way stop, as opposed to buying a new signal for the busy intersection.

The vote was not unanimous and came after one of the residents of the neighborhood warned losing the signal could be dangerous for the children who live in the area.
