Creative Corridors Coalition facilitates innovative projects that transform Winston-Salem’s public spaces through design, art, and community collaboration. One of those projects is a bicycle and pedestrian trail (a.k.a. multi-use path) running west-to-east along Salem Parkway in downtown Winston-Salem. CCC was at the forefront of crafting a master plan and design standards, developing unique partnerships with the city of Winston-Salem, the North Carolina Department of Transportation, and the Federal Highway Administration, plus raising private funds, all to ensure the bridges crossing the overhauled Business 40, now Salem Parkway, could accommodate this special path. Years of work to create a safe, connected, and beautiful space for walking, biking, and community life. The long-awaited project will be complete in late August 2025, and we can’t wait to get folks out to experience it firsthand.
Mark your calendars! On Saturday, September 13, 2025, the Creative Corridors Coalition invites you to join the Walk & Roll Fest at Truist Baseball Stadium in Winston-Salem. From 8:30 AM to 1:00 PM.
