Highway Message Sign Coming to Lake Wheeler Road

August 21st, 2009 by Jason Hibbets

According to an article posted on the City of Raleigh website, N.C. DOT To Begin Widening I-40 And Improving Signing For I-440, a new dynamic messaging sign is coming to our area of I-40 between Lake Wheeler Road and Gorman Street.

Another improvement will be the installation of a dynamic message sign on I-40 westbound between Lake Wheeler Road and Gorman Street, which will display information regarding travel conditions as needed.

There are many other parts to the project, including widening I-40 from the US-1/US-64 interchange to Wade Avenue from 4 to 6 lanes as well as installing new signs for I-40, removing the Inner / Outer Beltine designations “meant to help ease motorist confusion about travel on the Beltline.

I hope the sign isn’t going to interfere with the proposed interchange on the Centennial Campus Master Plan [PDF], which will take traffic from I-40 directly onto NC State’s Centennial Campus.
