1 Are You Ready for This. .. The future of NC-191

2 Construction starts next year.

3 It will effect your travels!

4 DOT rarely completes projects on time
Construction will continue for 5+ years. DOT rarely completes projects on time

5 When completed, this is what it will look like (to start with)

6 Then bridges, unsightly signs, rails will be installed.

7 Within a short time, the traffic will come. And more traffic will come.

8 Commercial Companies will fence in their property, creating ugliness.

9 More ugliness will come with strip malls.

10 And “convenience” stores.

11 No amount of beautification will hide the ugliness.

12 This is what 191 will eventually look like.

13 What a 4-lane 191 will bring. . . Lots of long-term construction
More traffic – tractor-trailers, trucks, & cars Increased noise and air pollution Increased auto inspection fees Ugliness with commercial development Higher speeds resulting in serious injury Higher taxes for road maintenance and emergency response. More crime

14 But Road Planners and Developers Are Not Content to Let Things Be

15 They will say we need to widen 191 because there is more traffic

16 But will it stop at 4-lanes
But will it stop at 4-lanes? Not if government and developers have their way.

17 Thus construction renews

18 What Do We Want? A safer, more effective, & less costly
3-lane road with center turn lane Is that so hard to understand?
