Known as the Western Section of the Winston-Salem Northern Beltway, the freeway will connect in the future to the Eastern Section of the beltway (TIP Project U-2579) between U.S. 52 and U.S. 311. The purpose of the public hearing is to present an updated Transportation Corridor Official Map for the Western Section of the beltway. The original Transportation Corridor Official Map for this section was presented in a public hearing in 1996 and filed on Oct. 6, 1997. NCDOT will hold a pre-hearing open house and Transportation Corridor Official Map Act public hearing for the portion of the Western Section from U.S. 421 to Robinhood Road and the interchange of the beltway with Betha nia-Tobaccoville Road on Tuesday, June 25, at Southwest Elementary School, located at 1631 Southwest School Rd. in Clemmons. NCDOT representatives will be available at the pre-hearing open house be tween 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to answer questions and listen to comments about the proposed project. The opportunity to submit written comments or questions will also be provided. Interested citizens may attend at any time during the aforementioned hours. A formal presentation will begin at 7 p.m. The presentation will include an explanation of the proposed project and the effects that the Protected Cor ridor will have on properties that lie within the proposed path. Hearing at tendees can offer statements, ask questions and provide comments. NCDOT will record the presentation and comments, and prepare a transcript of the hearing. For more information about the Transportation Corridor Official Map Act, residents can reference General Statute 136-44.50. Three changes to the Official Map are proposed: (1) At the previous Corri dor Protection Public Hearing, the section of the beltway from U.S. 421 to Robinhood Road was not protected by the Transportation Corridor Official Map Act, because right-of-way acquisition was already under way in that area. Since that time, funding for the project was delayed and right-of-way acquisition was put on hold. Therefore, this section will now be added to the Official Map to limit further development in the corridor. Minimal changes have been made to the design in this section. (2) The interchange of the beltway with Bethania-Tobaccoville Ro?d has been re-designed to avoid impacts to a historic property. The revised corridor will be added to the Official Map, and the portion of the corridor that is no longer impacted will be removed from the Official Map. (3) A previously proposed access road from Tilmark Drive to Peace Haven Road, near the I-4fo/US 421 inter change, has been removed. The corridor will be revised to no longer include the properties in that area. Maps displaying the design of the project in the areas where the corridor has been revised are available for public review at the Forsyth County Courthouse located at 200 N. Main Street, Winston-Salem; Winston-Salem City Hall South - Room 307 located at 100 East First Street, Winston Salem; Lewisville Town Hall located at 6510 Shallowford Road, Lewisville; and NCDOT Division 9 Office located at 375 Silas Creek Parkway, Win ston-Salem. Copies of the maps are also available on the project website at: http://www.ncdot.gov/projects/wsnb/. Anyone desiring additional information may contact Drew Joyner, P.E., NCDOT-Human Environment Section at 1598 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1598, by phone at (919) 707-6077, or via email at PublicInvolement2@ncdot.gov.
