The Woodstock City Council has approved a resolution to pursue federal funds to construct the Noonday Creek Trail Extension, as recommended in the “Livable Centers Initiative” corridor plan for Ga. 92.
The corridor plan identifies a gap between the Woodstock Greenprints trail system and the southern city limits, where a link-up could be made with Cobb County’s Town Center Noonday Creek Trail. The Atlanta Regional Commission has released applications for communities seeking federal transportation funds for projects “that improve access or make a connection,” the resolution says.
If Woodstock is awarded the funds, the resolution continues, the city would provide the 20 percent local cash match as specified in the program. The measure does not give a dollar value for the project, but documents attached to a related resolution approved recently by the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners say the Noonday Creek Trail Extension would involve $3 million in federal funds.
