The PATH Foundation and Dekalb County are planning to build a concrete bike road through the floodplain/wetlands surrounding Henderson Mill Creek.

• They call it a “trail” and a “path,” but it is neither. This is a bike road. 12’ wide concrete - wide enough to fit 2 Toyota Corollas side-by-side. A “trail,” as the term is commonly used, is a 2-3’ wide foot path through a forest. PATH’s 12’ concrete route is about 5x wider than a “trail.” What PATH will build is, essentially, a road.
• The plan calls for access points next to existing homes in quiet residential neighborhoods at Cravey Ln, Rangewood Dr and Bolero Tr.
• They say it’s the only way to connect up Tucker to their planned Peachtree Creek Greenway, but there’s another way. Flowers Road is a perfect location for a safe and pleasant bike path. PATH has publicly stated that they insist on building this bike road through the wilderness “because we can.” The question is not whether they can, the question is whether they should.

It is unnecessary destruction of the beautiful wetlands/flood plain along Henderson Mill Creek.

Please sign our petition to stop this concrete bike road through the Henderson Mill Creek floodplain!
