Attachment 3: Draft Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro (DCHC) MPO Project List Projects Deleted From Draft Priority List Project Project Description Reason For Deletion South Churton Street (Old NC 86) Improvements Develop congestion management, limited access, bicycle and pedestrian improvements, and aesthetic and capacity improvements along South Churton Street (Old NC 86/SR 1009) from I-40 to U.S. 70 Business. More specifically, the project would widen South Churton Street along this segment to multiple lanes with a landscaped median and would widen the railroad bridge. Included in the Carryover Project List for the DCHC MPO I-40 Widening from I-40/I-85 interchange to NC 86 Widen I-40 from four (4) lanes to six (6) lanes from the I-40/I-85 interchange to the interchange at NC 86. The project is recommended in the DCHC MPO MTP. Included in the Carryover Project List for the DCHC MPO I-40 Widening from NC 86 to U.S. 15-501 Widen I-40 from four (4) lanes to six (6) lanes from NC 86 to the Durham County line (U.S. 15-501). This is a subset of the full I-40 widening project recommended in the DCHC MPO MTP. Included in the Carryover Project List for the DCHC MPO I-85/Old NC 86 Interchange Improvements Reconstruct interchange at I-85 and Old NC 86 to relieve existing and/or future expected congestion on the under-capacity existing interchange, to accommodate future capacity improvements to both Churton Street and I-85, and to increase operational efficiency at the on-ramp/off-ramp intersections with Churton Street. The new interchange would also be an opportunity to provide pedestrian and biking facilities across I-85 that do not currently exist along the corridor. Funded under SPOT P4.0 Orange Grove Road Extension Extend Orange Grove Road from the east side of South Churton Street (SR 1009) to U.S. 70 Business Funded under SPOT P4.0 I-40 and NC 86 Interchange Improvements Improve interchange at I-40 and NC 86. Funded under SPOT P4.0 NC 54 Operational Improvements (Orange Grove Road - originally Dodsons Crossroads - to Old Fayetteville Road) Implement operational improvements along NC 54 from Orange Grove Road (SR 1006) to Old Fayetteville Road (SR 1937/1107) to address congestion, safety, intersecting street turning movement delays, and the lack of usable gaps in traffic for side street access to the facility as an alternative to widening the facility to four (4) lanes. Improvements may involve signalization at problem intersections, additional dedicated left and right turn storage at side streets, and other possible treatments. Combined into One Project and Funded under SPOT P4.0 NC 54 and Orange Grove Road Intersection Improvements Improve NC 54 and Orange Grove Road Intersection with operational improvements, including the possibility of a signal, to ease traffic congestion and long wait times for left turns from Orange Grove Road onto NC 54. 19
