New Greenway out our front door

Here is a comprehensive map of the current Capital Area Greenway. www.raleighnc.gov/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_2_109824_0_0_18/Capital_Area_Greenway_Map.pdf
Great things will be happening for the Greenway right by the store. So often we run from the shop south on the Greenway. It is a fantastic route and a quiet oasis for runners, walkers and bikers too. But, a new route will be exciting, fresh and different.

From http://www.raleigh-nc.org/: "The Honeycutt Creek Greenway project continues this trail along Mine Creek to West Millbrook Middle School/Park and Honey Park north of I 540. The trail will then continue and connect to Falls Lake at Raven Ridge Road. This terminus will also connect to the South Shore Trail on Falls Lake. The total length of this trail segment is approximately 5.8 miles.

The 2003 Park Bond Referendum included funding for the design and construction of this greenway segment and City Council has authorized funding in the amount of $1.543 million.

Project Schedule
Construction Start Date - Spring 2009
Construction Completion Date - Spring 2010 "
