Greenway Connections
At a glance
- What: resident interest in bike lanes, trails and a greenway link to Winston-Salem.
- Where it stands: raised at the October 13, 2026 Mayor's Town Hall. A resident noted new sidewalks and a bike lane on one side of Bethania-Rural Hall Road. Officials said Covington Memorial Park is too tight for a bike path or trails; see Covington Memorial Park Improvements.
- What's next: nothing scheduled. A later park phase near the end of Pine Street could change the space available, but that was described as down the road.
Details from the town hall
- A greenway connecting to Winston-Salem has been discussed, but no status was known.
- Many greenways follow abandoned rail corridors; an official noted that when a local rail line was abandoned the land reverted to the original owners and some homeowners had to buy back land they thought they owned.
