INFORMATION CONTACT:

ACTION REQUESTED:
Approve candidate project recommendations.
PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS:
April 15, 2024, Regular Meeting, Agenda Item # 24-064 - BOCC action to not support inclusion of any alignment in Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP).
BACKGROUND:
The Charlotte Regional Transportation Planning Organization (CRTPO) is soliciting new projects for the 2055 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). The MTP is a fiscally-constrained list of projects for the region through 2055. Staff have worked with Monroe, Indian Trail, Marshville, and Hemby Bridge to identify candidate projects to submit. In addition, the BOCC may choose to take a position opposing a submittal for the Waxhaw Parkway, consistent with the position taken in April 2024 for the CTP.
The candidate projects recommended for submittal are:
• Marshville Bypass
• NC 84 from Wesley Chapel Town Hall to Rogers Road
• Old Charlotte Highway from Wesley Chapel Stouts to Airport Road
• Intersections of Idlewild and Mill Grove and Unionville-Indian Trail
Projects must be submitted by February 14 and the draft list of recommended projects will be available in mid-2025.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
