Maryville Alcoa Greenway

The Maryville Alcoa Greenway is a cooperative effort by the two cities and Blount County, Tennessee to connect existing parks with a paved foot and cycle path.

The city of Maryville initially developed its Bicentennial Greenbelt Park by clearing part of its downtown and damming Pistol Creek to flood the area.

In early 1996 the two cities were successful in obtaining an $850,000 grant of Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) for the Greenway.

On December 22, 2010, a bridge over US 129 funded by ARRA was completed which permits access to the Green Meadows community.

The Greenway heads southeast across US 321 and Montvale Road connecting with Sandy Springs Park at 2.5 miles (4.0 km).
