Pre-Design Public Touchpoint

We have just started the design process for the Six Forks Road Improvement Project.

What is the Pre-Design?

Pre-design is when we conduct preliminary topographical surveys, traffic analysis, and public and private utility location investigations. This information helps our engineers determine early concepts we can bring to the table for our roadway improvement projects.

The Six Forks Road Improvement Project is a result of a corridor study that also helped to guide the design concepts that we are proposing.

Project highlights include:

• Widening road to accommodate three lanes of travel in each direction with a planted median;
• Separated bike lane and sidewalks on each side of the road;
• Signal improvements and protected intersections for cyclists and pedestrians;
• Transit stops;
• Green stormwater infrastructure;
• Landscaping and other amenities.

We have a presentation below that explains some of the exciting elements we are proposing for the Six Forks Road corridor.

Please, watch the presentation below, and the take a few moments to let us know how you use the corridor and give us your feedback, we are collecting information until Nov.16.

Our team is working on early designs. We are on schedule to bring the initial plans to the public in winter 2021.

During the corridor design, there will be multiple opportunities for public input.
