Oak Ridge Town Manager Bill Bruce said there are no immediate plans to extend the sidewalk along Linville Road, but the town’s MST Committee is considering it as one of many options to connect the new Headwaters Trail trailhead parking lot on Linville Road with the town park.

“Are there any plans to build a sidewalk going north on Linville Road (in Oak Ridge) towards Haw River Road? It could be a huge benefit to the community to have a sidewalk running from the new parking lot (just south of the Haw River) to the park – both for
extending recreation options for hikers, as well as for supporting the MST. “I get nervous every time I see cars passing runners and bikers along Linville Road,” this reader continued, “and after attempting to jog along the road once or twice myself, I deemed it unsafe and won’t do it again. It would be such a benefit to our community to make the road safer for all users!”
