A portion of the trail - including a wooden boardwalk and tree-lined trails - opened to the public in February and extended the existing path an additional quarter-mile from the pedestrian tunnel under Atlanta Highway to the pedestrian bridge near UNG.
A release from Hall County Government said the final piece of the Tumbling Creek Trail project has created more than one-half mile of additional trail space.
Free parking for the ribbon-cutting ceremony will be available inside the parking lot of the University of North Georgia’s Health Sciences Building at 2990 Landrum Education Drive in Oakwood.
UNG officials will provide a golf cart shuttle service to transport guests to and from the ribbon-cutting ceremony location.
Guests may also follow directional signage that will be placed alongside the trail for a short walk to the ceremony.
