Project Overview

The N.C. Department of Transportation proposes to improve the I-40 Interchange with Old N.C. Highway 10 (S.R. 1761) (Exit 118) and replace the existing bridge on Old N.C. Highway 10 over I-40 within and adjacent to the Town of Hildebran in Burke County.

  • Curleys Fish Camp Road
  • U.S. 70
  • Third Street S.W.
  • Martin Fish Pond Street
  • Dietz Avenue
  • Old Brittain Road
  • Dowell Street
  • Old N.C. Highway 10

Southwest of the interchange, outside of the town, Old N.C. Hwy. 10 will be improved with 4-foot-wide grassed shoulders, 2-foot-wide paved shoulders and two, 12-foot-wide travel lanes

Proposed improvements to Old N.C. Hwy. 10 northeast of the I-40 interchange will include a 5-foot-wide sidewalk on the north side, two 12-foot-wide travel lanes, curb and gutter and a 10-foot-wide grass shoulder on the south side, consistent with the urban context within the municipal limits of Hildebran and local input.

RESOURCES FOR PROPERTY OWNERS 


Although the N.C. Department of Transportation works to minimize the number of homes and businesses displaced by a road project, it is inevitable, in many cases, that a certain amount of private property is needed.
