42 <br /> Existing Infrastructure - Deficiencies <br /> There are multiple issues related to infrastructure deficiency and traffic issues that warrant <br /> improvement, create safety hazards, and prevent children from walking and cycling to <br /> school safely. Key weaknesses, barriers, and obstacles include the following: <br /> — The high speeds and high traffic volume along US 70 presents a serious safety threat for <br /> pedestrians and bicyclists. <br /> — There is no sidewalk connecting to the crosswalk. <br /> — The shoulder along Orange High School Road is narrow and has a steep drop off along <br /> certain parts. <br /> — There are no bicycle racks located on campus. <br /> — There are no pedestrian or bicycle facilities found on adjacent roadways.Table <br /> 2.7 summarizes key locations where insufficient infrastructure creates barriers to <br /> pedestrians and bicyclists. <br /> Table 2.7: Hillsborough Elementary School Characteristics <br /> `•. • Orientation Ga• <br /> Orange High School Road Both sides No sidewalk or bike lanes <br /> US 70 Both sides No sidewalk or bike lanes <br /> Ann Road Both sides No sidewalk or bike lanes <br /> Joyce Road Both sides No sidewalk or bike lanes <br /> Harold Latta Road Both sides No sidewalk or bike lanes <br /> Gwen Road Both sides No sidewalk or bike lanes <br /> BUS <br /> •. <br /> f <br /> Ar r <br /> h� 1 <br /> v *440 <br /> �W <br /> Safe Routes to School <br /> Orange County,North Carolina 40 <br />
