NCDOT to Hold Public Hearing Regarding Proposed 1-40
Improvement Project in Ciemmons
TIP Project No. 1-0911A
The N.C. Department of Transportation will hold a public hearing in Ciemmons from 4
7 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 18 to inform citizens of a proposed project to widen and improve
1-40 from west of N.C. 801 in Davie County to east of Harper Road/Tanglewood Business
Park Road in Forsyth County. These improvements will include the replacement of the
existing bridges over the Yadkin River.
The purpose of the project is to increase capacity and enhance safety on this section of I
40.
An Environmental Assessment (EA) was approved in June 2011. One "best fit" alternative
with three design options in the vicinity of the historic Win-Mock Farm was studied. The
option chosen as the preferred design will use a steeper slope adjacent to the Win-Mock
Farm property to reduce impacts. No relocations are anticipated as part of this project.
The public hearing will be held on Monday, Nov. 18 at the Ciemmons Village Hall Council
Chambers, located at 3715 Ciemmons Road. Interested citizens may attend at any time
during the hearing hours, as there will be no formal presentation. NCDOT representatives
will be available to answer questions and receive comments regarding the proposed proj
ect. Citizens will also have the opportunity to submit comments and questions in writing.
Maps displaying the location and design of the project, as well as a copy of the EA are
available for public review at the following locations:
? Village of Ciemmons Planning Department, 3715 Ciemmons Road:
? Town of Bermuda Run, 120 Kinderton Boulevard, Suite 100;
? NCDOT Division 9 Office, 375 Silas Creek Parkway, Winston-Salem; and
? Winston-Salem Transportation Department, Suite 307, Bryce Stuart Municipal Building,
