Project Highlights:

This project would construct approximately seven (7) miles of freeway, and include interchanges at three locations:

• Stately Pines Road (S.R. 1106)
• Fisher Avenue (S.R. 1104) 
• Camp Kiro Road (S.R. 1112)

​Driveways, intersecting streets and median crossovers would be removed and service roads extended along portions of the project to provide access for property owners and to ensure mobility for local traffic. At interchanges, roundabouts will be constructed where the U.S. 70 on/off ramps connect to the intersecting cross streets.

A preferred alternative has been selected for the R-5777C project. This includes US 70 being elevated over Camp Kiro Road and Fisher Avenue. Stately Pines Road will be elevated over US 70.

Public Meeting Maps 2020:

These maps were updated October 26, 2020 to include the results of the Traffic Noise Report completed in September 2020.  The new maps show three areas where “reasonable and feasible noise abatement” is recommended for further investigation during the Design Noise Report, which will be completed during the Design Build phase of the project. These areas are outlined on Maps 2, 3, and 5 for each alternative.

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.
