What is a greenway trail

Connections to businesses, neighborhoods, transit, jobs, schools, rivers, creeks, parks and conservation areas let you explore!

Greenways have a lot of individual benefits — they connect you to where you need to go and let you explore new places, too. Greenway projects protect land so it can safely flood and restores the health of watersheds and habitats while engaging people to learn about and help take care of our natural resources.

Louis an attractive, vibrant and competitive place to live work, play and visit. Greenways also connect our communities literally and figuratively in new ways — people begin to think differently about their region, how to explore it and how to meet their neighbors.

A greenway is about people and the land they love. It is about conservation.

It is about recreation and alternative transportation. It is about environmental education. It is about connecting the quality of life Alpharetta now has with the future plan that will help maintain that quality of life. Our greenway is an investment in the future of Alpharetta — an Alpharetta that is green, with open spaces for people as well as natural areas for plants and animals. Long range plans include connection to the Forsyth County trail system. Most importantly, "Use but don't abuse".
