Board recommends transportation map updates to reflect completed roadwork and remove one proposed collector
Summary
The planning board recommended amending the town's 2040 Comprehensive Transportation Plan to show Donnie Brook Road extending to Fateville Road (as built during NC DOT's Complete 540 project), reflect an East Academy Street realignment, and remove a proposed collector between Randdale Road and Lake Wheeler Road after staff found local connectivity adequate.
Fuquay Varina planning staff asked the board to recommend changes to the 2040 Comprehensive Transportation Plan that reflect recent and planned road changes. Staff noted Donnie Brook Road now extends to Fateville Road following NC DOT's Complete 540 work, and staff showed a map updating East Academy Street's realignment tied to a separate project under construction.
Staff also proposed removing a proposed collector between Randdale Road and Lake Wheeler Road, explaining staff determined area interconnectivity and environmental constraints made the collector unnecessary for the long-range map. Board members asked whether removing the collector from the 2040 map prevents future road construction; staff clarified that the map change is illustrative for planning and does not itself build or legally remove future requirements for access that could arise with development.
The board voted to recommend approval of CTA 20262 as presented and staff submitted the agenda abstract and supporting documents into the official record.
