in the order listed above, if necessary, since this is the order of urgency for <br /> having an adopted plan to guide imminent development. The purpose of adopting <br /> the plan in segments, if necessary, is twofold. One reason is a compelling need to <br /> have an adopted plan in areas under active development where we do not currently <br /> have one, most notably the I-40 corridor and the RTP/Airport area. The second <br /> reason is to avoid the possibility of having adoption of the entire plan held up <br /> by controversy on one particular proposed facility. It is recognized the plans for quadrants separately is only gat ed that oversial <br /> facility or its potential replacement do not cross possible u the controversial <br /> quadrant boundaries. <br /> After all segments of the plan are adopted on the local level, the entire plan will <br /> be submitted to the N. C. Board of Transportation for approval. The final adopted <br /> Thoroughfare Plan will serve as a basis for reserving rights of way for future <br /> roads and for guiding orderly development throughout the urban area. <br /> 6.2 <br />
