Firefly Trail work near completion; staff cites March target for Oakmont connection
Summary
Transportation staff told the commission the Firefly Trail segments one and two are roughly 95% complete with colored concrete and culvert work underway; finish to Oakmont subdivision is expected by the end of March, pending weather and utility coordination.
Transportation staff gave an update on the Firefly Trail construction, saying major work on the first two segments is nearly finished. “They are about 95% complete on segments one and two, which is Hancock Road, De Moss Road, and Athena Drive area,” a staff member said, adding crews are installing colored (red) concrete at road crossings and replacing stream culverts.
Staff said the trail is scheduled to reach the Oakmont subdivision by the end of March but noted weather delays and Georgia Power relocations have already pushed the deadline. Remaining property‑owner requests are being handled by the manager’s office; once those are resolved, staff said the trail will be extended to Winterbell.
Commissioners praised the design work and accessibility features and asked staff to keep the commission informed about outstanding property coordination and any schedule changes. No formal action was taken; the update was presented as an operational briefing to the commission.
