Snellville has recently received a $385,000 grant from the Community Development Block Grant Program for the Briscoe Trail sidewalk construction project which will link The Grove at Towne Center with T.W. Briscoe Park, Sawyer Pkwy SW.
“One key component of our efforts toward achieving the city’s walkability goal is the construction of interconnected sidewalks and trails as recommended in the Snellville Greenway Master Plan adopted by Mayor and Council in December 2017,” said City Manager Butch Sanders.
The Briscoe Trail sidewalk will be a 5,000-linear-foot connection between T.W. Briscoe Park, Highway 78, nearby neighborhoods and the planned Towne Center trail system which will run through the historic cemetery and behind the office parks on Wisteria Drive. The city will be responsible for at least $68,000 to cover engineering design and construction supervision.
