Gateway85 CID recently celebrated the opening of the new pedestrian bridge on Brook Hollow Parkway at the intersection of Brook Hollow Parkway and Pinnacle Way in Norcross. The bridge, which is 10 feet wide and 150 feet long and situated over a creek, allows for safe pedestrian travel on the south side of this important arterial connector. It also provides a beautiful view of the creek.
Additionally, sidewalks on the southside of Brook Hollow Parkway are complete along the entire expanse from Jimmy Carter Boulevard to Indian Trail Road. There are four bus stops along this stretch of road and in the past, pedestrians had to cross the street and stand in grass to wait for the bus. Now they can walk and wait safely on the new sidewalk.
The CID also constructed a pilot enhanced bus stop at the intersection of Brook Hollow Parkway and Mitchell Road to include benches, a trash can and upgraded landscaping. Upon completion of the construction, Gwinnett County Transit relocated the stop location to utilize this area for its passengers.
