You can reserve different sections to be your party. One group of 25 is having their family reunion and one is having a birthday party. It’s going to be a lot of fun.

They can’t possibly be talking about the entire stretch of Glenwood all the way to Durham County. I imagine the Wade project is the entire stretch ITB? Anyonw know?

Chris- the roads you mentioned are mostly residential city streets, maintained by the City of Raleigh.
Glenwood and Wade are state-maintained secondary roads (SR’s), done by NC DOT.

It’s like some of those run down trailer parks with a Lexus parked out front. Brilliant!
Anyway, glad they are finally getting around to it.

I don’t think it has been repaved since the 80s, and since then a residential neighborhood and three different apartment complexes have sprung up along the road between Tryon and Avent Ferry. It would be great if we could get a sidewalk and a bike lane (wishful thinking on the bike lane, I know) since Lake Johnson abuts the street near Avent Ferry. It would make walking down to the Lake much easier for all of us, and save us on tires.

There are sections of it that look like Whack-A-Mole. (Maybe I’ll get my car realigned in celebration.)

I’d love to live in Country Club Hills, but being a pedestrian in that neighborhood is extremely dangerous. I almost ran over John Edwards one day when we was jogging down the middle of Alleghany. Glad I missed him. Nobody would ever believe it was an accident.

They appear to be repaving it now, but only in parts… which makes absolutely no sense to me. The whole thing needs to be ripped up and replaced.

And there is enough money to build roundabouts at Hillsborough and Oberlin, but not enough to resurface major thoroughfares (yeah, I know, different pots of money, but the point remains.)
