Douglas Galyon <br />Division 7, Member <br />NC Board of Transportation <br />1 South Wilmington Street <br />Raleigh, NC 27611- <br />Dear Mr. Galyon: <br />Enclosed with this letter you will find this year's Orange County <br />Trans rtation Priority List for Consideration of Funding in The North Carolina <br />Po <br />Transportation Improvement Program " <br />The first section addresses three projects in Orange County that are <br />within the Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro Metropolitan Planning Area. Our <br />number one priority project continues to be improvements to Homestead Road <br />(U-2805) to address school safety issues. It is important that improvements to <br />Homestead Road not be delayed from the scheduled construction date in 2004, <br />and it would be desirable if the project could be .advanced. We were <br />disappointed. that the construction date has already .slipped from mid-2001 to <br />2004. <br />The second section describes the. projects Orange County is requesting <br />for the parts of the county that lie outside the Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro <br />Metropolitan Area.. We hope that you will be able to fund these highway, transit <br />and bicycle improvements. <br />Thank you for your time and consideration of Orange County's <br />transportation needs. If you would like to discuss this matter in detail, please <br />contact Beverly Blythe, Clerk to the Board of County Commissioners at (919) <br />732-8181, extension 2130. <br />ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />Sincerely: <br />Alice Gordon, Chair <br />g:~klincoonltip02-08Wraftbotdx\71-23-99Ud <br />
