Residents tell Midway council pipeline construction is damaging neighborhood roads
Summary
Two longtime Midway residents told council that Transco and Duke Energy pipeline construction using heavy equipment has disrupted neighborhood character and is deteriorating a residential cul‑de‑sac used as a construction access, and asked what recourse exists for road repairs after projects end.
Two residents spoke during the public address portion of the Midway Town Council meeting on May 4 to urge the council to address impacts from ongoing Transco and Duke Energy pipeline work.
Mona Hardiman, who said she has lived in Midway for 35 years, described “heavy equipment noise and land disturbance” and said the work has been disruptive to the character of nearby neighborhoods including Enterprise Road, Country Lane, and Old Hwy 52. Her husband, Jeff Hardiman, told council vehicles including tractor‑trailers, log trucks and water trucks are using their residential cul‑de‑sac as a primary access route and asked what recourse residents would have for road repairs when construction finishes.
Mayor John Byrum acknowledged the concerns and said council and staff would be available to meet with the residents after the formal meeting; Davidson County Planning Director Lee Crook was present and was directed to be a contact for follow‑up on land‑use and permitting questions.
