Traffic-Calming Projects Head for Public Hearing
Raleigh City Council today authorized the City of Raleigh Public Works Department to seek public input on the design aspects of seven traffic-calming projects scheduled for completion in the spring of 2014. Council will receive public input during its November 5 evening meeting. Each project is included in the project list approved by Council in September 2012.
The streets involved are:
- Delany Drive from Milburnie Road to Glascock Street;
- Carlton Drive from Fox Road to Bentley Circle;
- North King Charles Road – south, from the Traffic Circle to Milburnie Road;
- Cardinal Grove Boulevard – north, from the Cardinal Grove Home Owners Association to Kyle Drive;
- Cranbrook Road from Shelley Road to Six Forks Road;
- Bennett Street from Glascock Street to Dennis Avenue; and,
- Whitehall Avenue from Brockton Drive to East Millbrook Road.
The process proscribed in the City’s Neighborhood Traffic Management Program has been completed for each street. The process includes: submission of a petition of support signed by the owners of at least 75 percent of the properties listed, a public workshop, a preliminary design review and comment period, and a second public workshop during which the final changes are adopted.
