On April 16, 2014, Atlanta Braves and Cobb County officials outlined the timetable for the new stadium's construction.
Site clearing was scheduled to begin July 15, 2014 and complete by October 13, 2014.
However, site clearing started ahead of schedule after the Cobb County commission vote on May 27, 2014.
The Atlanta Braves held a formal groundbreaking ceremony on September 16.
The ceremony took place at the site near the northwest intersection of Interstates 75 and 285.

In order to start construction three natural gas lines that ran under the property had to be moved.
The high cost of moving the gas lines is one of the key reasons the land had not been developed.
The cost to move the lines was $14 million.
The pipelines were moved to the perimeter.
Two of the lines, which run about 8 feet (2.4 m) underground, are owned by Colonial Pipeline Company, and the third belongs to Atlanta Gas Light Company.
The project was completed in early November, 2014.

In November 2014, workers started drilling the holes for the pylons around the outside perimeter of the stadium's footprint.
According to the Braves vice president of business operations Mike Plant, phase one of construction for both the stadium and mixed-use development began in November 2014 and included infrastructure for the site, such as sewer, water and electrical systems.
The retention walls for the underground service level of the stadium were also built.
The underground level will have a few hundred parking spaces for players, team doctors, clubhouse staff and management staff.
By May 2015, crews had installed all the caissons to stabilize the foundation.
With the caissons complete, the crews began to pour concrete for the decks.

On August 27, 2015, the Atlanta Braves held a ceremony for the first brick laid of 775,000 bricks that made up the main exterior at Truist Park.
On hand for the ceremony were dignitaries from the Braves, Cobb County government, and ballpark sponsors.
The first brick was laid by Eutis Morris, 83, who laid the first concrete block at Fulton County Stadium and placed the first and last bricks at Olympic Stadium, which later became Turner Field.
Also laying bricks were former Atlanta Braves player Hank Aaron and the team's current first baseman Freddie Freeman.
The team also sealed two time capsules.
The capsules included a video of the ballpark ground breaking; parts of the Big Chicken; a 1948 World Series program; dirt from both older stadiums; a baseball signed by the 1995 championship team; and recordings from team broadcasters.
These time capsules will be opened when the stadium is demolished.

In June 2016, construction started on a pedestrian bridge to connect SunTrust Park with the Cobb Galleria.
The bridge spans Interstate 285.
To fund construction, Cobb county used $5 million given by the Cumberland Community Improvement District, about $4.5 million in federal grants, $380,000 from the Atlanta Braves and about $159,000 from a special taxing district in Cumberland created to help fund the new Braves stadium's construction.

In July 2016, the installation of the seats for the new ballpark started.
Also, the installation of hundreds of LED lights were installed along the edge of the ballpark's canopy from the right-field foul pole to home plate.
Additionally, a large, light-up tomahawk was installed.
Meanwhile, the 108,000 square foot (10,000 m²) metal canopy that covers about 60 percent of these seats was completed.
In August 2016, the canopy, lights and seating bowl were completed and the last crane remaining on the field area was removed.

In January 2017, most of the exterior work was complete.
The team began moving out of Turner Field the day after the Braves' 2016 season ended, storing equipment temporarily at a warehouse.
In December 2016, staffers began moving office equipment and furniture into the new ballpark, and on December 19, team employees began moving into their offices.
The playing surface itself started to take shape.
The drainage and irrigation systems were installed and covered with layers of gravel, sand and soil.
