The design phase for the Bolin Creek Greenway Extension is underway!

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project will extend the length of the Bolin Creek Greenway from Umstead Park to Estes Drive Ext. 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 connect to the future Estes Dr Ext bike-ped improvements that are also under design as well as other future greenways.
  • The project is part of the Town’s Everywhere-to-Everywhere Greenways network. It aims to make a useful, accessible, safe, and connected transportation greenway system for all ages and abilities.

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.

    The Bolin Creek Greenway in Chapel Hill goes from the Community Center to Umstead Park. The Town of Chapel Hill is working to design and construct an extension of the Bolin Creek Greenway to bring it all the way to Estes Drive. Community input will help us decide the best way to do it! Please fill out this survey to let us know your thoughts. This survey will be open through February 11th.
