Ug4 print.) <br /> 3.6 CEDAR GROVE TOWNSHIP <br /> Circulation <br /> A modified version of the North Carolina Highway Functional Classification System is <br /> used to describe Orange County's road network (see Section 2.6 - TRANSPORTATION <br /> of this plan for complete description). This system describes parts of the network <br /> according to mobility and access factors. The most important roads, Interstates and <br /> arterial highways, provide the shortest travel time and best service between important <br /> activity centers. Roads of lesser importance, collector roads, do not provide as high a <br /> level of service, but do provide large areas with access to major roads. Local roads <br /> have the most limited service capacity, but in the aggregate serve to provide large land <br /> areas with access to the collector and arterial systems. <br /> The two most traveled roads in Cedar Grove Township are arterial highways NC 86, <br /> extending northwest from Hillsborough towards Yanceyville; and NC 49 which bisects <br /> the northwest quarter of the township, running northeast from the Alamance County <br /> line. The two roads join just south of the Caswell County line near the community of <br /> Prospect Hill. <br /> Other important roads in the township include the collectors N. Efland - Cedar Grove <br /> Road (SR 1004 and SR 1357), Carr Store Road (SR 1004 and SR 1352), Corbett Ridge <br /> Road (SR 1004), Walnut Grove Church Road (SR 1001), Little River Church Road (SR <br /> 1543), Wilkerson Road (SR 1507), Lynch Store Road (SR 1364), Saw Mill Road (SR <br /> 1545), and Mill Creek Road (SR 1343). These roads provide the most direct access to <br /> the arterial system in the northern part of the county. All other roads provide a local level <br /> of service. <br /> , <br /> , <br /> sendkien ef lew velume and high speed, te the fGFeed flew epeFatien at lew speeds that <br /> ehaFaQter+zes-level s€-se^ ise'F:' <br /> fFee fie. e f tF fie NG86, th- .. r,..h Sei7}LTt Mute trhF9blgh the Te nnvrnp, -har, -a <br /> I&A wmq 4,6Q0 vpd just ReFth ef Phelps Read <br /> Ypd.
