Sugar Creek Greenway: Yorkmont to McDowell Farms
Sugar Creek Greenway: Yorkmont to McDowell Farms
This ~3 mile section of trail is the first funded phase of Sugar Creek Greenway and will connect Yorkmont Road to McDowell Farms Drive. This project will provide a public parking area on South Tryon Street and numerous pedestrian connections to neighborhoods along the corridor, including Coliseum Centre Dr, Arbor Loop Dr, Memorial Pkwy, Apex Landing Way, Center Park Dr, S Tryon St, Mounting Rock Rd, and Edgegreen Dr.
