Greensboro has a long standing tradition of having many outlets for physical exercise. We have many parks, greenways and trails for running, biking, walking, or just exploring the outdoors. Today Greensboro announced that on March 2nd weather permitting they will begin the first phase of a $26 million dollar project to construct a 4.8 mile recreational greenway around downtown Greensboro. The greenway will be 12 feet wide, will encircle, and cut through more then a dozen city neighborhoods. There are actually some parts of the greenway which are already biking/jogging paths but, they will be widened and improved.
The Greenway organizers plan on taking a strictly neighborhood approach to the entire project. For instance there will not be a grand ground breaking ceremony but merely a small neighborhood celebration in the Warnersville neighborhood which borders the first leg of the greenway. The group has planned small neighborhood celebrations all along the route as it those subsequent phases are done. This has been a goal of the project to unite Greensboro into one neighborhood. The organizers of the greenway project believe that the greenway will help to stimulate development along the route, link all the neighborhoods together and promote physical activity.
