BIKE & HIKE BREVARD!


The City of Brevard is committed to developing a pedestrian and bicycle friendly community.  To that end, we intend to construct over 15 miles of bicycle / pedestrian pathway, as funding permits.  When complete this pathway will connect downtown Brevard to Pisgah National Forest through the City's Bracken Mountain property, and along Davidson River to the Davidson River Campground.  It will also connnect dowtown Brevard to Brevard Elementary and Brevard High School. "Safe Routes to School"

Gallimore Road Pathway

The City of Brevard is working to construct the Gallimore Road bike / hike path.  When complete this path will connect Brevard Elementary School, the Boys and Girls Club, and Brevard High School, and link existing sidewalks along US Highway 276 and Country Club Road.

 

The Gallimore Road bicycle / pedestrian pathway is made possible by the taxpayers of the City of Brevard as well as a generous grant from the North Carolina Department of Transportation's Safe Routes to School program (SRTS).  For more information please visit the SRTS website

 

The City of Brevard will hold a groundbreaking for the Gallimore Road Bike / Hike Path on February 25, 2010, 1:30 PM at 377 Gallimore Road (next to Medical Associates).  Citizens interested in attending should contact Sarah Lutz-Pietersen at (828) 885-5630 or by email at sarah.lutz-pietersen@cityofbrevard.com .  Space is limited, so please RSVP by February 22, 2010

 

 

 Additional funding is needed!  The City of Brevard is seeking donations to augment tax and grant dollars.  Please consider purchasing a brick paver.  For a donation of $100 or more a brick paver, engraved in honor of your family, will be placed along the pathway.
