I’ve been waiting with eager anticipation for the completion of the Chambliss Street and Holmes Run Crossing Project. According to a sign on the building site, the project was scheduled for completion this spring. Perhaps rain and other weather events have slowed construction.

Since the deadline has come and gone, and the project looks nowhere near completion, it’s anybody’s guess when the bridge will finally connect the two sides of Holmes Run. The bridge will mean we won’t have to go through the hilly neighborhood to get to Glen Hills Park, where another  trail along Holmes Run leads all the way to Columbia Pike.

Planning for the project started more than five years ago. If you want details of the construction project, and can decipher blue prints, then you’ll appreciate this. The bridge looks very sturdy, and is raised well above the water.
