Construction slated for new pedestrian pathway to The Grounds
Construction on a new pedestrian pathway connecting Faculty Drive to The Grounds will begin in early March. In partnership with the North Carolina Department of Transportation, the development and construction teams behind The Grounds will re-engineer the intersection at University Parkway and North Cherry Street. The goal is to simplify a complex roadway and slow traffic, creating a safer, pedestrian-friendly connection.
