July 4 – Tide to Town and City of Savannah Break Ground on Final Phase of Truman Linear Park Trail

July 4, 2024 – Friends of Tide to Town and the City of Savannah held groundbreaking ceremonies for the final leg of the Truman Linear Park Trail on Monday, July 1. The event took place at the intersection of Costa Rica and E. 58th streets, in front of the Holly Heights Community Garden.

“It was exciting to turn dirt on this final three-mile section of the trail project,” said Armand Turner, Healthy Savannah’s physical activity program manager and Friends of Tide to Town board president. “Once completed, the total connected pathway will be approximately 9 miles and will offer more opportunities for safe, healthy and stress-free pedestrian and bicycle access for many of Savannah’s minority and underserved neighborhoods.”
