The N.C. Department of Transportation proposes to improve N.C. 109 in rural Montgomery County, from Hearne Farm Road/Woodyard Road to Pee Dee Road, a distance of about 2.7 miles. 

The purpose of the project is to improve mobility in the project area and provide a safer roadway. The project would modernize the roadway by providing one consistent twelve-foot travel lane in each direction, with six-foot wide shoulders (four feet paved and two feet turf).

The majority of the construction would take place within existing NCDOT right-of-way, although temporary construction easements could be required outside of existing NCDOT right-of-way.

The proposed project is included in NCDOT’s 2020-2029 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) as project R-5826B. Right-of-way acquisition and construction are scheduled to begin in state fiscal years 2023 and 2026, respectively.

Because the project would involve only relatively minor, symmetrical improvements to an existing facility, only one build alternative was studied. The facility will continue to be an undivided rural roadway with no control of access. Temporary off-site detours will likely not be required because staged construction will be used for the project.

RESOURCES FOR PROPERTY OWNERS 

Although the N.C. Department of Transportation works to minimize the number of homes and businesses displaced by a road project, it is inevitable, in many cases, that a certain amount of private property is needed.
