Middle Creek Greenway

Middle Creek Greenway is a multi-use trail that is made up of boardwalk, asphalt, and sidewalk connections. It is planned to provide a regional connection between Apex and Holly Springs, with 4.3 miles of paved surface connecting six neighborhoods, one retail center, and one employment center. It will also complete a safe pedestrian route to Lufkin Road Middle School, and will connect to Felton Grove High School in the future.

We recently added to this greenway! Click here for project details.
