loo <br /> PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT <br /> PLAN: Land Use Element of the Orange County Comprehensive Plan <br /> REFERENCE: Section 3.7 Little River Township <br /> ORIGIN OF AMENDMENT: X Staff Planning Board <br /> X BOCC Public <br /> Other: <br /> Expected Public Hearing Date: November 24, 1997 <br /> Purpose of Amendment: To insure compatibility with the road functional classifications (Section 2.6)of the <br /> Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Background: This amendment is needed because of the changes to Section 2.6 - TRANSPORTATION of the <br /> Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Existing and proposed plan text: (strike through text to be deleted and underlined text to be inserted) <br /> Circulation <br /> A modified version of the North Carolina Highway Functional Classification System is used to describe <br /> Orange County's road network (see Section 2.6 - TRANSPORTATION of this plan for complete <br /> description). This system describes parts of the network according to mobility and access factors. The most <br /> important roads, Interstates and arterial highways, provide the shortest travel time and best service between <br /> important activity centers. Roads of lesser importance, collector roads, do not provide as high a level of <br /> service, but do provide large areas with access to major roads. Local roads have the most limited service <br /> capacity, but in the aggregate serve to provide large land areas with access to the collector and arterial <br /> systems. <br /> The two major roads in Little River Township are arterial highways; NC 57, extending northeasterly from <br /> Hillsborough to Roxboro; and NC 157, which runs in a southeasterly direction toward the City of Durham. <br /> These two routes form an "X" pattern which intersects in the center of the Township in the community of <br /> Caldwell. , seryes as the southeastern leg of <br /> poffer"- <br /> Other important roads in the Township include the collectors , Schley <br /> Road (SR 1548), and Little River Church Road (SR 1543). All other roads serve primarily local traffic. <br /> Planning Board: 10-14-97 <br /> BOCC: <br />
