The City of Easley, as recommended in its recently adopted Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, is studying the feasibility of building a greenway along Brushy Creek. A greenway is a paved path used by pedestrians and bicyclists for transportation and recreation, and for enjoying nature. The GHS Swamp Rabbit Tram Trail in Greenville is an example of a greenway.
The Brushy Creek Greenway could run between downtown Easley and the future Easley High School, or possibly to the County line. The purpose of the feasibility study is to identify opportunities and constraints, to lay out an ideal route, and to determine the cost to build the greenway. The City
of Easley, with consultants from Alta Planning + Design and Seamon
Whiteside + Associates, will host a public meeting on Monday, November 15, at 6:00 PM, to discuss the Brushy Creek Greenway Feasibility Study and to hear input from local residents.
Members of the public are encouraged to attend and offer feedback. The public meeting will be held at the Larry Bagwell Gymnasium at 201 Peoples Drive, Easley, SC 29642, adjacent to the baseball fields.
