Crossing Bridges: Book Reading and Signing
2024-05-12 17:00 - 19:00 | Sentient Bean, 13 E Park Ave., Savannah, GA, 31401, United States
Join Bike Walk Savannah, Friends of Tide to Town, Healthy Savannah and the East Coast Greenway Alliance for a special Bike Month reading of Crossing Bridges: What Biking Up the East Coast Taught Me About Life After 60 by Lisa Watts.
At 58, Lisa Watts felt restless. She had built a carefully balanced life of work and play, but it all seemed to add up to a life of mediocrity. She and a dear friend headed out to bike from Key West to Canada, a trip she had dreamed of taking for many decades. Those two months on the road offered a time of transition, teaching her plenty of lessons but mostly that she doesn’t have to be an armchair traveler through life’s third act.
In her travel memoir Crossing Bridges: What Biking Up the East Coast Taught Me About Life After 60, Watts shares those lessons in a collection of engaging essays about friendship, marriage, ambition, self-doubt, and more. Her aim: to nudge others out the door to go do that thing they’ve always wanted to do.
Copies of Crossing Bridges will be available for purchase from the author. Food and drink will be available for purchase from The Sentient Bean, and trail mix will be provided for attendees.
Visit https://www.crossingbridgesmemoir.com/ for more information. RSVP at the ticket link to reserve your seat.

Chevis Road Improvements Public Information Open House
2024-05-16 16:00 - 19:00 | Georgia Coastal Botanical Garden, 2 Canebrake Rd, Savannah, GA, 31419, United States
This project will improve Chevis Road between U.S. 17/Ogeechee Road and Wild Heron Road. The purpose of the project is to improve safety and connectivity for all road users to existing schools, commercial areas, bus stops and neighborhoods. This project will be partially funded with your local SPLOST dollars as well as with federal tax dollars. During the concept phase we will consider what safety, operational and pedestrian improvements will best fit the corridor. The project will also consider bicycles, drainage, lighting and water quality improvements.
An early Stakeholder meeting was held in April 2023 attended by area organization representatives. We thank those who attended and provided valuable input. The written comments from this meeting are included in the Attachments section. This information along with the disscussions at the meeting are helpful for the ongoing planning and design.
A Public Information Open House will be held at the Georgia Coastal Botanical Garden on May 16, 2024 from 4 PM to 7 PM so that you will have an opportunity to provide input and look at what improvements we are considering. The initial studies have been taking place and Conceptual Engineering is underway. Concept layouts will be available at the Public Information Open House and are now available for viewing on this web site. The overall schedule includes design of the selected improvements in 2024-2025, right of way acquisition in 2026 and construction beginning in 2027.

Savannah River Crossing Long-Term Solution Public Information Open House
2024-05-21 18:00 - 20:00 | Coastal Georgia Center, 305 Fahm St., Savannah, GA, 31401, United States
As the fastest-growing port in the nation, the Port of Savannah is a
significant economic engine for the Savannah region, the state of Georgia, and the nation. However, the Port’s limited accessibility potentially stifles future growth and in turn, the region’s ability to compete with other ports.
Although structurally sound, the 185-foot clearance of the SR 404 Spur/US 17 Bridge limits larger, more commercially viable ships that are becoming increasingly common on the world’s oceans from navigating beneath the bridge to access the Port of Savannah’s terminals, located upriver from the bridge.
The Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) seeks to address the Port’s limitation by evaluating long-term improvement alternatives to the existing SR 404 Spur/US 17 Bridge over the Savannah River. Once a preferred alternative is determined, the project will advance to the preliminary engineering phase.
Join GDOT and local partners at an in-person Public Information Open House on May 20 from 6-8 p.m. at the Coastal Georgia Center. Visit https://bit.ly/SavannahRiverCrossing for more information.

Truman Linear Park Trail IIB Groundbreaking
2024-07-01 10:00 - 17:00 | Holly Heights Community Garden, 58th/Costa Rica
City of Savannah officials and staff, along with community partners, will celebrate the start of construction on the next phase of the Tide to Town Urban Trail System, Truman Linear Park Trail Phase 2B, on July 1 with an official groundbreaking ceremony.
The Truman Linear Park Trail Phase 2B will begin at 52nd St. and Bee Road and run to East Derenne Ave., connecting Truman Linear Park Trail Phase 1 (Police Memorial Trail) to Truman Linear Park Trail Phase 2A and Lake Mayer Park. Once completed, both phases of Truman Linear Park Trail will create approximately seven miles of continuous off-road, multi-purpose, ADA accessible trail for pedestrians and bicyclists.
The new phase of the Tide to Town trail will be a 10-foot-wide concrete path with a timber bridge ditch crossing and includes an 8-foot-wide protected, shared-use path across the 52nd St. bridge over Truman Parkway
Tide to Town is an initiative to create a system of trailways connecting Savannah’s neighborhoods to safe, affordable and cost-effective walking and biking infrastructure encouraging long-term socio-economic development.
Construction for Truman Linear Park Trail Phase 2B was approved by City Council on February 8, 2024. The contract was awarded to JHC Corporation out of Newnan, Georgia at a cost of $8,193,540. Tide to Town is largely funded by the hotel/motel tax which granted the project a total of $10 million through a resolution passed on May 24, 2023. Tide to Town also received funding from SPLOST VII and the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA).
