Mobility <br /> Road Network <br /> Extend Caldwell Road. <br /> • Extend Caldwell Road from NC-49 to US-29.This extension provides a new north-south travel option,which <br /> serves regional and local mobility needs. Caldwell Road Extension can also help alleviate the transportation <br /> impacts of event traffic associated with the Charlotte Motor Speedway.The Caldwell Road Extension is <br /> planned to be a four-lane median-divided section with sidewalks and bike lanes on both sides.This cross- <br /> section(shown in Figure 10)is recommended in part based on projected needs of the previous development <br /> proposals and in part on the regional mobility needs that Caldwell Road Extension will further. Future traffic <br /> projections may show fewer lanes needed,especially in the northern section,but 110 feet of right-of-way should <br /> be reserved to accommodate future needs. <br /> �1 <br /> ah <br /> AtIC1 W.

Proposed Caldwell Road Extension Cross-section <br /> Two proposed alignment options for Caldwell Road Extension are shown in Figure I I in <br /> dashed red lines. The proposed road connects to existing Caldwell Road at NC-49 and <br /> continues generally north, crossing Mallard Creek, and connects to US-29 in Mecklenburg <br /> County across from Floyd Smith Office Park Drive. The proposed roads are illustrative of <br /> a proposed system. Exact alignments will be subject to engineering studies, and will depend <br /> on the type, location, and intensity of development that each will serve. <br /> 501 Morehead West Area Plan <br /> Attachment number 1 \n <br /> G-2 Page 192 <br />
