Rogers Bridge Park is a scenic 24-acre riverfront park located in Duluth, Georgia, nestled along the Chattahoochee River. A highlight of the park is the Chattapoochee Dog Park, which offers separate off-leash areas for small and large dogs, complete with water fountains and agility equipment. The park also serves as a trailhead for several planned multi-use trails, such as the Western Gwinnett Bikeway and the Chattahoochee River Greenway.

Surrounding Rogers Bridge Park are several notable attractions. The recently completed pedestrian bridge connects Rodger’s Bridge Park to Cauley Creek Park in Johns Creek, fostering regional connectivity and offering extended recreational opportunities. Nearby, visitors can explore additional parks such as Bunten Road Park and Shorty Howell Park, which offer a range of facilities including sports fields, playgrounds, and walking trails. The park’s location also provides easy access to the Chattahoochee River, inviting activities like canoeing, kayaking, and fishing.
For visitors entering Rogers Bridge Park from Cauley Creek, Chattapoochie Dog Park is conveniently located just beyond the parking lot, on the left.
Established in 2012, Rogers Bridge Park has a rich history intertwined with the historic Rogers Bridge, originally constructed in 1912. The bridge served as a vital crossing over the Chattahoochee River for decades before falling into disrepair. In a collaborative effort between the cities of Duluth and Johns Creek, along with Gwinnett and Fulton counties, the bridge was reconstructed as a pedestrian bridge, officially reopening in 2023. The park also unveiled a public art installation titled “The Shape of Time and Water,” a 27-foot-tall sculpture incorporating steel from the original bridge, symbolizing the connection between past and present.
Chattahoochee RiverLands Pedestrian Trail Bridge
The City of Smyrna and Trust for Public Land are exploring a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge across the Chattahoochee River. This bridge could improve connections between existing and planned trail systems in Smyrna and Atlanta while creating new opportunities for recreation, mobility, and access to the river. Share your input on project priorities, potential uses, and how this connection could serve the community.
