Will the Aldridge Creek Greenway ever go under Weatherly Road: Ask us

A reader asked, “Will the Aldridge Creek Greenway ever go under Weatherly Road to connect the north and south ends of the Greenway?”

According to the city of Huntsville, work will begin soon to connect the greenways — but not via a Weatherly Road underpass.

At nearly 5.5 miles, Aldridge Creek Greenway is one of the longest existing greenways in Huntsville. The main stretch runs along Aldridge Creek from Bailey Cove Road down to Ditto Landing on the Tennessee River. Another stretch of greenway runs along the creek north of Weatherly Road, about a half mile from Bailey Cove Road.
