Estes Drive Extension Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements
The design phase for the Estes Drive Extension Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements is underway!
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Add bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure to Estes Drive Extension between MLK Jr. Blvd and the Carrboro border at the railroad tracks (see map below).
- These improvements will connect to the recently finished bike lanes and path along Estes Drive, the future Bolin Creek Greenway Extension, and eventually into Carrboro.
- 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
- The Town has hired the same consultant, NV5, to design this project and Bolin Creek Greenway Extension at the same time.
- Construction for both projects is a couple of years away.
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.

After completing construction of the improvements on Estes Dr, the Town of Chapel Hill is now working to design and construct bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure on Estes Drive Extension. This new project will extend the new infrastructure from Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd to the railroad tracks just past Village Dr. at the border of Chapel Hill and Carrboro. Community input will help us decide the best way to do it! Please fill out this survey to let us know your thoughts.
