In this episode of Macon It, we sit down with Bill Causey, a longtime public servant and one of the driving forces behind many of Macon’s most beloved green spaces and trails. Even in retirement from Macon-Bibb County, Bill is still hard at work advocating for projects that connect people to nature, and to each other.

From helping pave roads and shape Macon’s water drainage systems early in his career to spearheading the growth of the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail, Bill has spent decades helping shape the way our community moves, gathers, and grows. We talk about the vision behind Macon’s trail system, the importance of public greenspace, and why creating pathways through the community is about much more than recreation, it’s about connection.
