Trail Closed

Repairs have begun on the section of the Forsyth Big Creek Greenway between Mcfarland Parkway and Union Hill.  Additional flooding and rain delayed the start of repairs to the damaged section of boardwalk.  The repairs are estimated at being completed on Monday May 9th, weather permitting.

Also the Bethelview entrance to the trail was closed today, 4/26, due to a tree blocking the trail.  Crews are out removing the tree, and that portion should re-open tomorrow, 4/27.

The repairs will fix many joists that have become damaged since the Greenway was constructed.  Some users of BigCreekGreenway.com have reported seeing vehicles driving on this section of the Greenway.  If you witness any motor vehicles on the Forsyth County Greenway, please contact the Forsyth police.  The only motorized vehicles authorized to use the trail are 4 wheelers the Forsyth police use to patrol the trail.

There is still no date set for the repairs to be completed.

We will keep you posted as we hear more about when this section will re-open.  For now the parking lot at Union Hill remains open, and the trail is still open North of Union Hill.
