REPORT <br /> N.C. 57/157 INTERSECTION AND HWY 70/ORANGE HIGH ROAD INTERSECTION <br /> John Link reported that the problem at N.C. 57/157 will be corrected <br /> by installing a double alternating flasher and placing rumble strips at that <br /> intersection. The Orange High Road intersection will be studied further <br /> with a report from DOT before June. <br /> Vic Knight questioned if DOT was going to include in their study of <br /> Highway 70/Orange High Road the change in the traffic pattern for that area. <br /> He suggested that DOT look at how the traffic pattern had changed as a <br /> result of the traffic congestion and the dangerous situation at NC 86 and <br /> 57. The people coming from the Caldwell community use that portion of <br /> Miller Road which is unpaved to avoid this dangerous intersection. <br /> John Link indicated he would ask DOT to look at the traffic pattern <br /> as requested by Vic Knight. <br /> F.
