Residents and visitors will soon be able to explore the new Eastern Regional Greenway Trail. Spanning just over 5 miles, the trailhead features boulders for seating, a pavilion for gatherings, an open lawn play area, parking for 25 cars, restrooms, landscaping, and a bioretention stormwater area.

Stemming from the Eastern Regional Infrastructure project, Gwinnett Community Services and Water Resources joined forces to support the County’s sustainability efforts. Onsite, the public will also see the Apalachee River Pumpstation, which provides water and sewer services that will support future development in the area. The $19 million greenway project is funded by the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax program, known as SPLOST.
