ATTACHMENT 1 <br />9 <br />5. Intersection of Pleasant Green Road (SR 1567) & Mt Herman Church Road <br />SR 1713 - NCDOT Division 7 Traffic Engineers have recommended that this <br />intersection be included as a part of I-305 because of its proximity to the I- <br />85/US 70 interchange. The entire intersection should be realigned so that <br />Pleasant Green Road intersects US 70 at a 90-degree angle. <br />6. US 70 from NC 751 to University Station Road (SR 1712) - Due to the needs <br />of the Pleasant Green Road\US 70 intersection, Orange County requests that <br />US 70, from NC 751 to University Station Road, be upgraded to provide for a <br />suitable transition from/to I-85. An example of the need for this project is the <br />intersection of US 70 with Old No.10 (SR 1715), which currently operates at <br />level of service "F". <br />7. Mt Herman Church Road (SR 1713) -Preliminary plans by the Planning & <br />Environmental Branch, Division of Highways of NCDOT indicate that this road <br />may be relocated as part of I-305. Orange County requests that this road be <br />designed with 12' wide travel lanes and 4' wide bicycle lanes for a total paved <br />width of 32'. <br />8. Old NC 10 (SR 1710) -Preliminary plans by the Planning & Environmental <br />Branch, Division of Highways of NCDOT indicate that this road may also be <br />relocated as part of I-305. Orange County requests that this road be <br />designed with 12' wide travel lanes and 4' wide bicycle lanes for a total paved <br />width of 32'. <br />9. NC 86 - NCDOT has expressed concern that the width (2-lane) of the NC 86 <br />overpass is inadequate for increased traffic volumes that would result from <br />proposed development in the adjacent Economic Development District. <br />Orange County requests that the NC 86 overpass be widened. <br />
