City of Lenoir staff paved 1.5 miles of greenway during the past couple of weeks bringing Lenoir’s total paved greenway to nearly 9 miles. The City’s goal is to connect residents to recreation centers via greenway and sidewalks. Public Works Department crews paved another section of the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail as well. City Manager Scott Hildebran said the next step is to connect the various segments of greenway around Lenoir via street crossings, sidewalks, or more greenway.
