Progress is happening all along the route of the Coastal Georgia Greenway, which will also serve as the East Coast Greenway.
- Master grants writer and ECGA Georgia Committee Co-Chair Jo Hickson of Savannah is notably advancing the trail through many projects. Activities include a greenway-inclusive design of the Back River Bridge between South Carolina and Hutchinson Island and partnering with the Coastal Heritage Society Trail through Savannah's Battlefield Park and along the Savannah Ogeechee Canal
- Bryan County seeks recreational trail grant funds to build trails to Henderson Park
- Liberty County will construct a trailhead at Riceboro Creek this spring, in a project that includes a bridge
- A trail at historic LeConte-Woodmanston Plantation will memorialize more than 6,000 slaves in the county 150 years ago.
- Also involving Jo Hickson, McIntosh County has $1,075,000 for construction of the seven-mile Highlander Trail.
- In Brunswick, funds are sought for a two-mile Liberty Ship Trail at the foot of the Sidney Lanier Bridge, and a one-mile extension northward to the Torres Causeway and St. Simons Island.
- In Camden County, research is underway to acquire a six-mile abandoned rail corridor linking St. Marys and Fernandina Beach, Florida via ferry service to begin this spring.
