Sugar Hill Greenway progress inches along

By mid-June, the Whitehead Road portion of the Sugar Hill Greenway had an additional 750 feet poured. The contractor working with the city is coordinating with the developer of the new Sophia Downs residential project regarding the curbing and Americans with Disabilities Act ramps required.

The upcoming final construction of Phase 1 will complete the connection from downtown Sugar Hill to the two parks on Level Creek and Peachtree Industrial Boulevard and over to Whitehead Road.

When completed, the Sugar Hill Greenway will be a 16-mile loop through and around Sugar Hill. The project is funded through a combination of city and county SPLOST funds by way of an intergovernmental agreement.
