Title

Harnett County CTP Amendments

Paul Black, CAMPO Staff

 

Body

NDCOT sponsored a series of updates to the Harnett County Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP) for use in the development of the 2045 MTP.  The amendments were endorsed by the Town of Angier on January 3rd, 2017 and Harnett County on February 6th.  There was a minor adjustment to the location of the future major thoroughfare west and south of Angier to reflect existing conditions.  The amendment also incorporates adopted South West Area Study (SWAS) recommendations.  These include a number of minor thoroughfares re-classified as boulevard (Old Stage, Chalybeate Springs, Rawls Church, and Guy/Lipscomb/Kennebec Roads). Additional SWAS recommendations include Purefoy Road and Old Buies Creek Road added as “Boulevard, Needs Improvement” along with a second connector for Lipscomb Road at Wimberly Road.

The bicycle recommendations also reflect the SWAS recommendations, and also include the minor location adjustment mentioned above.

The transit recommendations include proposed bus routes from the Harnett Area Regional Transit Service.

The pedestrian map includes additional off-road recommendations from the SWAS.

Other changes are outside the CAMPO region.
