CROSSING #735 199Y/MP H 48.49/Gordon Thomas Drive (P-44051) NCDOT DESCRIBED IMPROVEMENTS This crossing provides access to Old NC 10 (SR 1710) for six properties located south of the NCRR. The crossing occurs in an area where NS operates one mainline track and a passing siding. While the track section is straight at this `.. location, it quickly enters a curved section both east and west of the crossing. The sight distance for train crews on either approach to the crossing is limited by heavy foliage on both sides of the track. The crossing is vertically humped and is protected by crossbucks. Much of the property surrounding the six parcels is owned by Duke University and is part of its School of Forestry. Alternative access to these properties will be considered using Paschall Drive west of Gordon Thomas Drive. From there, drivers will be able to access Old NC 10 via Dove Creek Road (SR 115) or Murphy School Road (SR 1714). COMMENTS 1 . Based on the plat and deed information we have reviewed, Paschall Drive is a private access easement only 30 feet in width. Additional property will have to be secured by fee simple transactions or condemnation to secure the necessary right-of-way. PR. i" ATE ROAD . NO TRESPASSING _ Page 2
