Melinda Tate with the Murfreesboro Parks and Rec. Department told WGNS that the Greenway extension into Barfield Park is on the drawing board.

The extension will utilize a bridge that was once part of Barfield Crescent Road prior to the construction of Veterans Parkway. The trail will cross over that bridge and enter into Barfield Park.

More Details:

The Stones River Greenway extension follows the West Fork of the Stones River from Old Fort Park to Barfield Crescent Park and includes four phases. Phases 1, 2, and 3 are complete. The remaining section of the trail starts at the termination point of Phase 3 on Barfield Road and extends the trail approximately three miles to Barfield Crescent Park. The trail will include a bridge connection to the east side of the river and a small trailhead at Southridge Subdivision.
