Final Mile of Greensboro Downtown Greenway to Open May 16; Students Lead Earth Day Cleanup
Summary
Greensboro College students and staff cleaned the College Branch stream for Earth Day ahead of the city’s announcement that the final mile of the Downtown Greenway will open May 16; the briefing also listed family and music events in early May.
Greensboro College students and staff joined an Earth Day cleanup along the College Branch stream between Greensboro College and Weaver Academy, the city’s weekly flash briefing said, and the final mile of the Downtown Greenway is set to officially open on May 16.
The recorded announcement described the cleanup work—picking up litter and debris—and said the area is “almost ready for its close up” before stating the opening date for the Greenway’s final mile. The briefing also promoted several upcoming community events, including the family-oriented Wheels on the Greenway on May 2 and multiple performing-arts events at area venues.
City spokespeople did not provide a detailed schedule of official opening events for May 16 or operational details for the new Greenway segment in the briefing; those specifics were not specified in the recorded update. The briefing directed listeners to the city's website for more information on events and the Greenway.
