Future Greenways - Wake County Supported 

Did you know? A portion of the greenways built in Apex are planned for and supported by Wake County with grant funding. The County is currently working on a plan for more greenway trails, creating better connections between where we live, work, learn, and play. Linked below are a few Apex projects prioritized in the plan.
