Monday night, the Brunswick County' Board of Education voted to advertise for bids to add a turn exit lane to the n'.a:r, sc.hoo! drive, which now has single entrance and exit lanes. Traffic bottlenecks at the school, located at the intersection of N.C. 179 (Village Road) and Blake Drive. “It’s so dangerous the police don’t even want to go there,’’ one school board member commented. Shallotte Police Chief Don Stovall agreed, "He’s a target. It's dangerous for our officers to be there. The way the road's designed, there’s no safe place for him to stand.’’ While he had temporarily stopped sending an officer to the intersection to direct traffic before and after school, Stovall .said Tuesday that his ucpartincnt has agreed to help out Uie school on a short-term basis. “They have requested we help them out the rest of the school year and we will,’ he said. Chief .Stovall said the N.C. Depart ment of Transportation plans to slightly widen Village Road and add left turn lanes to the north- and south bound lanes. DOT also plans to lengthen the right turn lane from the direction of Ocean Isle Beach so that it can ac commodate more vehicles, said Bill Benton, head of the county DOT maintenance office. DOT has been working with the oimuvvic more than two years on a solution to the traffic problem at the school, but had delayed the work until the school could add its turn lane. Tuesday, Benton said the source of funds for the project would most like ly determine if DOT would be able to do its share of the improvements 111 Ul l^tl before summer. “If they say u.se maintenance funds, we’ll do it as soon as possible.’’ But if he’s directed to use urban im provement or spot safety funds, the most likely sources, he said, it will take a minimum of 30 to 45 days to set up funding. In that case, he said, “I don’t see how we could do it before the end of the school veo*' v\»>AB>oKi«r ka summer.” While Chief Stovall said he would like to eventually see a traffic signal installed at the intersection, Benton said DOT signal engineer Roger Hawkins felt the changes in traffic channeling would relieve the pro blem.
