New boardwalk for greenway

A portion of Camp Creek Greenway is temporarily closed as a 988-foot wooden boardwalk is replaced with a long-lasting, lower maintenance, pre-cast concrete called PermaTrak. This section of the greenway is located between Velva Court and Rockbridge Road.
This SPLOST project will be the largest installation of PermaTrak in the southeast and is expected to be completed in August. The city installed another PermaTrak boardwalk in September 2015, which was the first in Georgia. Click here for updates.
