Construction of the Orange to Red route proceeds as planned until workers uncover a massive Indian Burial Site from an, as yet undocumented, Mississippian culture. A majority of Garner is condemned/seized after the UN declares the area a World Heritage Site.

Damn, I know some people that just bought a house in the blue&orange area. That would suckkkkkk if 540 went through their backyard, or worse.

Which route stands to make the most money for the people in charge of the decision? Where do they own land?

Lets go all China and build them all then turn the areas in the middle into a forest of highrise towers, shopping malls and business districts then wait for the people to come.

Red wont happen. Enough lawsuits otherwise plus half of dot will get fired.

Why the f do they change colors halfway through a line? Like Purple and blue?

orange>purple/blue>orange (at 70bypass) > brown

maybe it's broken down into stages of construction?

also, I don't think purple/blue links back into orange at the 70 bypass. I think it's purple-blue-light purple--> then either green-mint-brown-green OR green-teal-brown-green OR brown-tan-brown-green OR just brown or just green.

Which just equals an ugly plaid.

They should do all of those. One massive sprawling southern 540 extension.

I'm going with the Orange/brown/green route as well. might go orange/red/green but I think that'll be a little too far north for them. They'll want to have it a little more south.

No basis for that reasoning, just pulling it out of my butt

you're right about the purple/blue not linking back to orange... also, it's all one construction period - the purple to blue transition is a holdover from previous alternatives where it broke there... and since this is the continuation of a previous study, they have to keep the same colors - so as not to confuse, ha

that would be a terrible idea

apparently a box truck fell off the 540 overpass onto Glenwood Ave.

I like purple and blue, that is the best one to contribute to suburban sprawl and make my houses in Raleigh worth more money.

"Just a reminder for those with a vested interest in the "Complete 540" project or that live near the Orange & Green Routes, there are three meetings this week to go over the preliminary designs for the highway and how it will impact those areas...

Tuesday, Feb. 20, 2018 6-8 p.m.
Holly Springs High School Cafeteria

Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2018 6-8 p.m.
Barwell Road Community Center Gymnasium

Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018 4-6:30 p.m. then Public Hearing: 7 p.m.
Wake Tech Community College – Southern Wake Campus
Student Services Building L.

If you would like to take a look at those preliminary designs follow the link and on the right hand side of the page look for "Maps for Public Review". Click on "Subdivision Index" to determine which map corresponds with your community."


Anyone's house going to be impacted by this? My mom lives off of Sauls Rd and the highway will be going in about 300-400 yards away

It will be going in less than half a mile north of my house. Should be good for property values but the litte bit of country feel will be gone soon.

Where do you live?

We live off of Old Stage Rd, but much further south than where it will be coming through.

red would cut like 15 minutes off that drive. otherwise, you might as well cut through town to get from knightdale to apex.

Unless you work in RTP or Knightdale, I really don't see how the southern loop is really going to help anybody around here. Most folks I know work in Raleigh.

The flags marking the road are about 100 yards from my friend's house in his back yard. He lives in Apex.

They haven’t populated my building to save the dwarf wedge muscle yet so until they “protect them” they won’t start construction
