PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT <br /> PLAN: Land Use Element of the Orange County Comprehensive Plan <br /> REFERENCE: Section 3.9 Hillsborough 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 /> The County's major east/west and north/south transportation routes intersect in Hillsborough Township, making <br /> it a central point in the County transportation network. The east/west corridor consists of I-85, US 70, and the <br /> Southern Railroad. The north/south system consists of I-40,two State Highways,NC 86 and NC 57, along with <br /> W,�e important leeeA collector roads, Old NC 86 (SR 1009) and Orange Grove Road(SR 1006). <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 /> Interstates 40 and 85 are designated as interstates,while five roads in the township are classified as arterial <br /> roads; US 70 and its Bypass,NC 86,NC 57, Old NC 86 (from I40 to I-85). St. Mary's Road(SR 1002) angles <br /> northeast out of Hillsborough and provides a collector route between Hillsborough and northern Orange <br /> County. Orange Grove Road(SR 1006)and Old NC 10 (SR 1710) are also classified as collector roads. All <br /> other roads provide a local level of service. <br /> Planning Board: 10-14-97 <br /> BOCC: <br />
