The N.C. Department of Transportation is proposing to upgrade a section of U.S. 70 from the Havelock Bypass to east of Thurman Road (S.R. 1116) to interstate standards, in Craven County.
This project is one of several that NCDOT is working on to improve the U.S. 70 corridor with the intent of:
- Improving regional mobility
- Assisting economic development in primarily rural areas of eastern N.C.
- Providing a closer interstate connection to the Port of Morehead City
- Benefitting military interconnectivity
- Making the corridor safer by reducing at-grade intersections
The N.C. Department of Transportation has selected a preferred alternative for the R-5777C project.

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.
