City updates timeline for nearly 2-mile Clear Creek Greenway project
Summary
City engineer Bridal Shanahan reported the Clear Creek Greenway will connect East Side neighborhoods to Hendersonvilles greenway network, with the first west-of-I-26 phase expected this fall and remaining work anticipated in spring 2027; funding is from grants and community donations.
Chair called the July 2 meeting of the Hendersonville City Council to order. Clerk reported that City engineer Bridal Shanahan provided an update on the Clear Creek Greenway, which the council was told is a nearly 2-mile project to connect East Side neighborhoods to Hendersonville's greenway system.
Clerk said the project will improve crossings of Mud Creek, Allen Branch and Interstate 26 and will link residents to the post office, Highland Square Drive businesses and other destinations. Construction is underway by the same contractor that built the Acousto Trail.
The council was told the west-of-I-26 phase is expected to be completed this fall and the remaining section is anticipated in spring 2027. Funding for the project comes from a combination of grants and community donations, the clerk said.
The report did not specify construction costs or the total grant amounts. Council members did not record a formal vote on the update; the presentation was given as an informational progress report.
