City of Durham issued the following announcement on Jan. 21.
Public Input Requested by February 22
If you’re interested in major transit investments and local roadways, now is the time to give your input.
The Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro Metropolitan Planning Organization (DCHC MPO) is seeking public input on Amendment #4 to the Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP). The CTP is a multimodal transportation plan that covers transportation needs for the next 30 years and beyond.
Amendment #4 removes the former Durham-Orange Light Rail Transit alignment, incorporates the North Carolina Department of Transportation’s Complete Streets Guidelines, and changes or removes several local roadways including Erwin Road, Pettigrew Street, University Drive, Ellis-Glover Connector, and Hopson Road Extension. The Amendment also adds bus access improvements to Fayetteville Street, Holloway Street, N. Roxboro Street, and Chapel Hill Road.
