Project Location: Guilford County's Southwest Park

Project Description: The new Southwest Park being built by the Greensboro parks and recreation department, on the new Randleman reservoir will have many walking trails and paths that cross water. Harrison's project was to build a boardwalk, on one of the new trails, that crosses a 42 foot wide wet weather marsh area that would be very difficult to cross otherwise. The boardwalk will allow everyone who visits the park to be able to completely utilize the new trail system. The boardwalk will also be wide enough to allow utility vehicles to cross the marsh area. This will aide the others working in the park by allowing them to carry materials to work sites farther down the trail on small vehicles instead of having to carry them; as well as making the trail more accessible in the event of an emergency.
