Goodyear trail project phase III

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the Georgia Department of Transportation Division of Intermodal a formula grant of $167,053.44 under the Recreational Trails Program (CFDA 20.219) on September 24, 2025, for the Goodyear Trail Project Phase III. This project will develop a concrete pedestrian trail encircling an existing soccer field within Goodyear Park in Georgia and will incorporate interpretive signage highlighting the historical significance of the Goodyear Mill. The project is scheduled for completion by January 15, 2028.

The Recreational Trails Program provides states with formula-based funding to construct, maintain, and rehabilitate recreational trails and associated facilities serving both motorized and non-motorized users. The Goodyear Trail Project aligns with the program's eligible uses for trail construction and development of trailside facilities. This infrastructure improvement will enhance recreational access and community amenities while preserving local historical resources through educational programming integrated into the trail design.
