Trail Apple Study
PLOT Studio collaborated with the Regional Planning Commission of Greater Birmingham, the City of Trussville and SAIN Associates to study the feasibility for the extension of the Greenway through Downtown Trussville, including the Trussville Entertainment District and along the Pinchgut Creek corridor. The study evaluated existing conditions, preferred path of travel, road crossings, environmental constraints and many more elements to provide a comprehensive study of the feasibility of this greenway extension.
