Extension of Forsyth’s Ronald Reagan Blvd. now open

The Ronald Reagan Boulevard Extension is now open, providing motorists an alternate route parallel to Georgia 400 from the south end of Forsyth County to the middle of the county at Bald Ridge Marina Road.

Fully funded by Forsyth County’s Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) program, the project added approximately 3.6 miles on the south end of Ronald Reagan Boulevard between Majors Road and McFarland Parkway.

The extension includes a four-lane road with a grass median, shoulders, curb, gutter, a five-foot sidewalk
on one side and a 10-foot multi-use path on the other. The 10-foot multi-use path will eventually connect
to the Big Creek Greenway south of Shiloh Road, providing greater access to the Parks & Recreation
amenity.

With the extension opening, the road formerly named Bluegrass Valley Parkway (located on
the south end of the extension) will be renamed Ronald Reagan Boulevard.
