https://www.ncdot.gov/strategictransportationinvestments/2020-2029.html Couple notables: Widen Cleveland Rd, NC210, NC50 (Garner area, not JoCo section) Create interchange at Cornwallis Create road between NC42 & Cleveland Rd (behind walmart) Public comments will begin in a few weeks. Id personally encourage anyone wanting to see any of these projects sped up (all in my opinion), to submit a comment or attend any meetings on this.
I hope that they get started on the Road from Walmart and Cleveland Road started very soon! First heard about it around 4 years ago.
At least 5 more years. We will see the 540 extension well underway before this probably happens. But we should know for sure around August.
This one is probably one of the projects that will impact our area the most and is happening soon - https://www.ncdot.gov/projects/i40nc42/ Design-build contract awarded Summer 2018 I-40 widening begins Late 2018 or early 2019 I-40/N.C. 42 interchange upgrades begin Fall 2020 I-40 widening complete 2022
I can only think this will improve things greatly. Sorely needed. Otherwise might as well call it it Hot Mess, NC
