We are in the final stage of the "Study and Design process" for the 10th st connector. The engineering firm should be done by Feb/March. This will include all the final stuff that the road will have.
FROGGS want to prioritize the next sections of the greenways. Their first priority is to extend the South Tar River Greenway from the Town Commons to around Treybrooke.
Their second priority is a spur the follows Schoolhouse Branch. Schoolhouse branch is the creek that starts around the new dental school and dumps into the Tar. Their thinking is they want to link the two largest employers (ECU and PCMH) by the greenways.
Their third priority is to extend the South Tar River Greenway east towards the new Eastside park.
Fourth is a spur following Hardee Creek. That creek is the one that goes into Brook Valley. It wouldn't go into BV, but to the entrance on 10th St. So all those apartment complexes could use it.
Those improvements would be over 10miles of greenways.
Also we have some stuff coming from the federal budget:
Law Enforcement Technology Improvements 250k
Regional Family Justice Center 500k
Emergency Operations Center 1.2m
Greenway Expansion & Streetscape Improvement 500k
Watershed Management Plan 400k
West Greenville Wellness Center 500k
Go Science/Challenger Learning Center 750k
Small Business Center Incubator 500k
Town Common 150k
