<br />Answer: As development occurs. There is no horizon or set year when this transportation network will be <br />realized. Even since the 2011 E-B-M AMP, only one road, the one to Morinaga, has actually been <br />constructed. <br />Question: Why do you have a road cutting through the residents along Center Street? <br />Answer: This is part of the planned Turner Street which calls for a 50’ right of way and extends it Ben <br />Johnston Road. It is the current right of way still in existence passed on from the original owner. <br />We are studying how to address the growing traffic in the area; especially should the large <br />property east of the neighborhood be fully developed. <br />Question: When will Mebane expand into this area with all its growth? <br />Answer: The western portion of the planning area, to Buckhorn road, is seen as how far the city will grow. <br />However, the city cannot annex the area on its own. Developers and property owners must <br />petition to annex into the city due to changes in state law. <br /> 152
