Preliminary Estimate

All projects include in estimate a 25% contingency based on construction cost.

Strategic Goal:

Engaged, Inclusive Community

The master plan survey rated a nature park and greenway as the #2 priority and this location would

require no land acquisition since it is currently owned by the Town. This location has close access to

NC54, a mix of wetland & natural forest along with utilities in close proximity to support facilities.

The site would offer an additional large shelter, the Town's first fully ADA accessible playground and

would be the first Town developed park on the east side of NC54.

Crabtree Creek Nature Park

Parks & Recreation

Along Crabtree Creek next to Weston Estates subdivision entrance on Keybridge Drive

near NC 54.

Develop a passive recreation location with nature park attributes abutting Cedar Fork District Park

and Crabtree Creek on Keybridge Drive. The concept plan includes parking, picnic shelter, restroom

facility, nature trail, boardwalk, off road bike trails and large ADA inclusive playground along with

interpretive signage about ecology/wildlife.

Staff would need to determine the impact of Wake County's flood easement. There is value with the

ADA accessibility of this facility, it would provide a nice complementary facility to serve as trailhead

to Crabtree Hatcher Creek Greenway, along with a playground amenity in this area for commuters.

Additionally, it would provide enhancements to Cedar Fork District Park.
