Body

CAMPO is in the process of updating the Northeast Area Study (NEAS) completed in 2014 in preparation for the 2050 MTP. The Northeast Area Study Update covers parts of Wake and Franklin Counties, northern and eastern sections of the City of Raleigh, and the municipalities of Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon, Bunn, Rolesville, Wake Forest, Youngsville and Franklinton. To date, the NEAS Update has conducted public outreach in spring/summer 2020, and is coordinating an evaluation of transportation projects, policies and priorities that that have shifted since the original study. The Northeast Area Study Update kicked off in February 2020 and is anticipated to go until June 2021. The project team has been working with the Core Technical Team and Stakeholder Oversight Team on establishing guiding principles as well as a land use planning exercise evaluating possible future development patterns and how they could impact the transportation network. In addition, policy priorities are currently being analyzed along with specific hotspot locations and draft recommendations for roadway, bicycle, pedestrian, and transit projects in the study area. The NEAS Update will be seeking public input on draft recommendations opening on February 15, 2021 and closing March 10, 2021 through a virtual open house able to be explored at your convenience. Information is posted on the project website at www.neasupdate.com <http://www.neasupdate.com>. Timothy Tresohlavy with Stantec will give an update on project work the past year and next steps moving forward.
