Bailey: Navigating the chaotic Bartlett 5-Way intersection
Clay Bailey
Clay Bailey, a lifelong Memphian, has worked as a reporter in the city four decades. He concentrated on suburban coverage for the bulk of his career, except for a stint as sports editor of The Daily Memphian when it launched in September 2018. He now is suburban editor and also serves as a freelance sports writer for The Associated Press.
The 5-Way junction in Bartlett is so unusual that it can cause confusion for those not used to driving through the intersection.
