PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Bolin Creek Greenway is currently a 2.5-mile paved trail that connects the Tanyard Branch Trail and Umstead Park to the Chapel Hill Community Center. This project will extend the length of the Bolin Creek Greenway from Umstead Park to Estes Drive Extension

  • This project will connect to the future Estes Dr Ext bike-ped improvements that are also under design as well as other future greenways.

PROJECT STATUS: Under Design

HOW TO GET INVOLVED: Opportunities to participate will be shared on this page and through other Town channels. You can sign up to receive project update emails by clicking the blue “SUBSCRIBE” button on the right-hand side of the page.
