What is a Greenway?
Greenways are areas of protected lands established along rivers, streams, old railroad corridors, utility rights of way, and other routes for recreational and trail use. A greenway is ideally suited for outdoor activities such as jogging, walking and biking. Greenways provide safe, alternative, non-motorized transportation routes that connect people to parks and areas in and around towns and cities. Greenways serve as valuable components of the park and recreation system, provide pathways for wildlife, link cultural, historic and natural features, protect forests, wetlands, and grasslands. Greenways also encourage physical fitness and healthy lifestyles.
In 2002, the Town of Wake Forest adopted an Open Space and Greenways Plan that identifies areas to be protected for greenway use. The main greenway corridors follow Richland Creek, Smith Creek, Sanford Creek, and the 98 Bypass. These areas are planned to connect with the greenway systems of adjacent communities. Approximately 20 miles of greenway trails are planned for Wake Forest.
