After commissioning a study assessing possible traffic impacts of the road and in an effort to evaluate alternatives for the reconnection, the town of Morrisville will now consider options for connecting Kit Creek Rd from its western terminus to Davis Dr through the Kitts Creek subdivision.
What is Known
The North Carolina Turnpike Authority (NCTA) has given the town a November 7, 2008 deadline to accept or reject NCTA funding for the reconnection. The three possible options:
• Agree to the original NCTA reconnection design which adversely impacts some existing homes or
• Request an alternative reconnection or
• Notify NCTA of a desire to withdraw the reconnection from the roadway project
Based on a build-out projection of:
• 1,700 Dwelling Units
• 887 Office Employees and
• 900 Industrial Employees
19,000 daily vehicle trips are expected on Kit Creek Rd. RTP and cut through traffic resulting from the reconnection would add an additional 2,000 daily trips. If traffic calming measures are needed, town policy requires impacted residents fund 50% of the cost. (See Town of Morrisville Traffic Calming Policy)
