Project Updates

July 2026

Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services will begin construction soon. On June 22, City Council awarded the construction contract to North State Environmental Inc. Construction is scheduled to start in late 2026 and is anticipated to take 18 months.

During the next few months, these activities may be underway: locating, flagging, marking and relocating utilities.

During the project, there will be temporary closures on sections of the greenway. A mailer will be sent in advance with the anticipated closure dates, length and detour routes.
