City of Greensboro hosts Feb. 24 open house for A&Y 12-foot greenway

Greensboro’s Department of Transportation will host a public open house Tuesday, February 24, 2026, from 4:30–6:30 p.m. at Guilford Park Presbyterian Church, 2100 Fernwood Drive, to present updates and the construction schedule for the Atlantic & Yadkin (A&Y) Greenway Extension Project. The meeting was originally scheduled for January 27 but was postponed to the new date.

City materials and the project headline describe a new 12-foot greenway planned from Hill Street to Rollins Road, a detail the city is expected to address at the open house. The stated purpose of the meeting is "to present updates and the construction schedule for the Atlantic & Yadkin (A&Y) Greenway," and the Department of Transportation is listed as the organizer of the session.

The notice announcing the Feb. 24 session appeared through city channels and was echoed on local event listings and social media, which all list the same 4:30–6:30 p.m. time window and the Guilford Park Presbyterian Church address. Apart from the meeting announcement and the headline description of the 12-foot segment, project postings available to date do not include contractor names, start or completion dates, budget or funding sources, permit status, phasing maps, or detailed alignment drawings.

Those gaps mean attendees at Guilford Park Presbyterian Church should expect schedule-level information at the open house rather than full construction plans. City officials have indicated the session will present the construction schedule, but specific timelines, contractor identities, cost estimates, right-of-way impacts and any planned detours or property effects have not been released in the public notices available prior to the meeting.

The A&Y Greenway Extension is being advanced by the Department of Transportation with community outreach advertised through municipal notices and social channels. Residents who want to see the city's timeline for the Hill Street to Rollins Road segment and the design described as a 12-foot greenway can attend the Feb. 24 open house between 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. at Guilford Park Presbyterian Church, 2100 Fernwood Drive, where the Department of Transportation will present the construction schedule.
