The City of Peachtree Corners will hold a Public Information Open House on Thursday, January 8, 2026, at Peachtree Corners City Hall, 310 Technology Parkway, to discuss the proposed Crooked Creek Trail Project. The event will be held from 5 to 7 p.m.
This project proposes the construction of a 1.3-mile shared use path along Crooked Creek, with an additional 0.6 miles of spurs and loops providing connections to surrounding neighborhoods and communities. The project corridor begins at Spalding Drive, approximately 350 feet southwest of River Exchange Drive (north terminus), and extends to Peachtree Corners Circle, between Elmside Village Lane and Klinect Court (southern terminus).
The purpose of this open house is to provide residents and stakeholders with an opportunity to view the project plans, ask questions, and submit comments regarding the proposed improvements. No formal presentation will be given. Written statements concerning this project will be accepted until January 31, 2026.
