A section of the Big Creek Park boardwalk that was closed to replace multiple sections of joists and decking reopens May 4.

The affected boardwalk section runs from the triangle, where the bike and pedestrian trails meet, to the other side of the overpass, headed towards Alpharetta.

Big Creek Park, 1600 Old Alabama Rd. in Roswell, is a popular mountain biking, walking and hiking site with a pond, river access, restrooms and multi-use trail. The mountain biking trails at Big Creek Park offer riders of all levels opportunities to explore. The park is a trailhead for the 7.2-mile Big Creek Greenway.
