The Long Creek Greenway will eventually connect the Northlake Business Park to the new Whitewater Center. Various sections are in the long-range plans for the Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation Department.
* The section from I-77 to Beatties Ford Road is currently listed in the county's 10 Year Capital Needs Assessment. This section is about 2.3 miles and will connect several single family and multi-family residential neighborhoods. Access to the business park and mall will be provided through their respective sidewalk systems.
* The section from Beatties Ford Road to Oakdale Road is in the county's 20 Year Capital Needs Assessment. The biggest challege in this section will be how to work with NC Department of Transportation and private land owners to secure easements.
* The Shuffletown Park Project will provide land for the next major section. Working with Trust for Public Lands and developers in the area will help in providing necessary conservation easements as the county moves forward.
