Project Description
Clarke Creek is one of the major tributaries of the Rocky River in Concord. When completed, the 5.2-mile Clarke Creek Greenway will directly connect the Allen Mills, Winding Walk, Highland Creek, Christenbury, Granary Oaks and Edenton neighborhoods with the future JE ‘Jim’ Ramseur Park, Cox Mill elementary and high schools, Carolina International School, the future Poplar Tent Trailhead Park—from there crossing into the Rocky River basin with a future connection to the Hector H. Henry Greenway system. It will be connected to future multi-use path along Cox Mill Road, creating a loop.
Phase A of the project is approximately 1.6 miles in length and features two boardwalk crossing of Clarke Cree, a connection to the J.E. Jim Ramseur Park, and direct connections to Allen Mills, Winding Walk and Highland Creek neighborhoods, as well as Cox Mill elementary and high schools.
