Attachment 5: Draft Burlington-Graham Metropolitan Planning Organization (BGMPO) Project List <br /> <br />Map ID <br />#* Project Project Description SPOT 3.0 Score SPOT 4.0 Score <br />1 <br />Buckhorn Road <br />(SR 1114) <br />Widening <br />Widen Buckhorn Road from U.S. 70 to West Ten Road (SR 1144) to multi-lanes with bicycle and pedestrian facilities. This segment of <br />roadway is over 95% within the BGMPO planning area and borders the western boundary of the I-40/I-85-Buckhorn Road EDD. This area is <br />the focus of a growing problem of traffic backing up on the northbound exit ramps of I-40/I-85 onto southbound Buckhorn Road and at a left <br />turn into a nonconforming business use just south of the interchange. Orange County has extended water and sewer to this area to serve <br />public facilities and to increase the attractiveness of the EDD for development. The project was previously submitted through the DCHC MPO <br />as a bike project requesting four (4)-foot paved bike lanes when Buckhorn Road was located within that MPO’s planning area. <br />11.38 Division 14.10 Division <br />2 <br />Mattress Factory <br />Road extension to <br />U.S. 70 <br />Extend Mattress Factory Road northward a distance of approximately 240 feet across East Washington Street and the NCRR/Norfolk <br />Southern railroad right-of-way to intersect U.S. 70 at a 90 degree angle. The project would also call for the closure of the existing railroad <br />crossover road connecting East Washington Street and U.S. 70 approximately 240 feet to the east that currently provides access across the <br />railroad right-of-way to U.S. 70. The project would decrease travel time from points along Mattress Factory Road to access U.S. 70, would <br />provide more direct north-south access across the existing railroad right-of-way, and eliminate inconvenient turning movements for motorists <br />and trucks serving existing and future industrial uses south of U.S. 70 and along Mattress Factory Road. <br />1.64 Division 6.44 Division <br />3 Mattress Factory <br />Road Interchange <br />Construct new interchange at existing grade-separated crossing of Mattress Factory Road and I-40/I-85 to relieve existing and/or future <br />expected congestion on projected under-capacity existing interchanges at I-40/I-85 and Mebane Oaks Road and I-40/I-85 and Buckhorn <br />Road and to serve existing and future growth in the specific area around the proposed interchange. The proposed interchange would address <br />both traffic capacity deficiencies and reduce crashes related to congestion on parallel thoroughfares. The new interchange would also be an <br />opportunity to provide pedestrian and biking facilities across I-40/I-85 that do not currently exist in the Mebane area. <br /> <br />Specific improvements associated with the interchange include: <br /> <br /> Modified diamond interchange with a loop ramp in the southeast quadrant for I-40 eastbound exiting vehicles; <br /> Five (5)-lane roadway section on Mattress Factory Road at the proposed interchange; <br /> One bridge structure with a five (5)-lane section and bike/ped accommodations; <br /> Traffic signals installed on Mattress Factory Road at the ramp intersection and Oakwood Street with coordinated signals; and <br /> Industrial Drive realignment to intersect Mattress factory Road either across from Oakwood Street or further north. <br />6.06 Division 6.10 Division <br />*Map ID Number corresponds to the general location of each project on the map associated with Attachment 5: BGMPO Project List and Map. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 25
