Founders Park closing set for early May; re-opens ‘early fall’

Town of Farragut’s Founders Park at Campbell Station, 405 North Campbell Station Road, will close in early May.

“First Utility District is in the process of replacing sewer pipe from Turkey Creek Road to Village Green subdivision to replace aging infrastructure and increase sewer capacity for Farragut residents and businesses,” a Town press release stated in explaining the closing. “The project will require several road crossings, greenway crossings and work in Founders Park at Campbell Station.”

The park will “reopen in early fall,” the release further stated. “During this time, the entire park will be closed to the public.”

The southernmost portion of the park, mainly the parking area, recently was closed.

Farragut Branch of Knox County Library and the upper parking lot will remain open throughout the project.
