Southside Trail– Segment 6, Phase II

Southside Trail - Segment 6 runs approximately a 1/2 mile along Bill Kennedy Way between Glenwood Avenue and Memorial Drive. This project will replace the interim condition and create a new pedestrian bridge over I-20. The section running through Glenwood Park will also be improved.

Project Status

The design of this project was kicked off with the community during an ABI Study Group meeting in March 2024. The drawings for the project are 30% complete, with 60% plans forthcoming by Spring 2025. The engineering team is completing a traffic analysis that contemplates changes to adjacent streets and intersections, with the intent to minimize trail and car traffic conflicts. The project will be completed in two sections: Section A will include work in the ATLDOT right-of-way south of I-20 and Section B is the GDOT right of way from I-20 north to Memorial Drive.
