BOARD OF TRANSPORTATION <br />PRESENTED BY ORANGE COUNTY ON APRIL 17, 1991 <br />There are numerous transportation improvement needs in <br />Orange County. The County's population increased by almost <br />22e between 1980 and 1990, making it one of the fastest <br />growing counties in the state. The impacts of this growth <br />are resulting in severe deficiencies in our transportation <br />network. <br />To address these deficiencies, Orange County requests <br />that specific projects be included in the Transportation <br />Improvement Program (TIP). The projects include those <br />identified by the County as well as those listed in each of <br />the attached requests from the County's municipalities, <br />Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough. <br />Projects identified by Orange County <br />The Orange County 1991 Transportation Improvement <br />Program Requests are presented in the attached letter written <br />to Mr. L.J. Ward of the North Carolina Department of <br />Transportation. There are both projects recommended for <br />removal from the Transportation Improvement Program and <br />projects recommended for inclusion. These latter requests <br />give priority to identified safety needs on existing roads <br />and bridges and to other transportation projects which foster <br />alternatives to automobile travel. The Orange County Board <br />of Commissioners respectfully asks that the 1991 <br />Transportation Improvement Program be adjusted to reflect <br />both the deletions and additions requested by the County. <br />Projects Identified by-the Count 's Municipalities <br />The Orange County Board of Commissioners endorses the <br />attached municipal requests, with the stipulations given <br />below, and respectfully asks that each of the projects be <br />included in the Transportation Improvement Program. <br />YOU COUNT IN ORANGE COUNTY! <br />
