Harnett: Commissioners back Buffalo Lake Road Project
More in Government:
Harnett County leaders threw their full support behind a major road upgrade at their regular meeting on July 7, backing a state-funded roundabout project and pushing for a new traffic light at a busy neighborhood intersection.
The board agreed unanimously to approve the revised letter of support for state Route 1115 Buffalo Lake Road and state Route 1141 (Alpine Drive) Roundabout Project, and they amended the letter to show support for a traffic light at Ray Road and Nursery Road.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) recommended widening Buffalo Lake Road in Aug. 2023 and has since completed a study on the project.
The widening project may be viewed here.
The 2023 NCDOT project includes a roundabout for state Route 1115 Buffalo Lake Road and state Route 1141 (Alpine Drive), for which funding has been approved.
Division 6 Project Development Engineer Steve Kendall said in a phone call with Sandhills News that the Harnett County Commissioners’ request for a traffic light at Ray Road and Nursery Road was probably funded as well.
