Learn more about NCDOT's project near Piney Plains Road.  Information on NCDOT's project plans and status can be found on their website. Plans to improve the highway to highway interchange where I-40/I-440/US1/US64 intersect are underway.  There is significant weaving (aka lane changes) as motorists approach and traverse this interchange which result in a high number of side-swipe accidents. 

As part of the project, NCDOT will relocate the US 1 / Walnut Street ramps to Dillard Drive, shown in red on the project map.  The proposed ramp relocation will improve safety on the highway, but impact traffic patterns on the local streets.  NCDOT is assessing the impact to local streets as part of the project.
