The North Carolina Department of Transportation is conducting a survey to find out what North Carolina residents think about various services provided by NCDOT.

North Carolina residents can take the survey here: http://go.ncsu.edu/ncdotsurvey

Results from this survey will be used to identify ways we can make North Carolina transportation safer, more efficient, and customer focused.

It's about time. People walk that area all of the time. It should be pedestrian friendly.

They can be used when traffic is at a standstill....people can leave their cars & walk to their destination.

What is the construction in Cleveland park on the corner of McDaniel Ave and Woodland Way?   It looks like there is some heavy-duty equipment involved.

Probably a permanent fix for the bridge/sewer there that washed out.

Market Point Connector. Solid!

But then I read this: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/4-affordable-cities-where-stressed-parents-can-find-work-life-balance-2016-01-12?mod=mw_share_twitter

and immediately think, hey that's great, but can we get a new road for everyone of these national articles that advertises the former secret of how great Greenville is. If the county can't do it, then the Greenville County state representatives need to band together and figure out why so much of the road funding in the past two decades (and I know the -85 development is the 2nd biggest project after the Ravenel Bridge) has gone to the myrtle coast and the low country. 

Our local population seems to be booming. Correspondingly, traffic around here just "seems" to be worse and more frustrating. Does anyone know if someone is going to make a go of another penny-tax referendum? Does the county have any plans to fund traffic studies to document how bad it is and where needs are the most pressing? I just don't feel we get the love from the DOT in Columbia, the politicians in Columbia, and our local state reps seem more concerned about bike lanes and road diets than building a smarter road system. 

I get that Conservatives hate big government and taxes. But Conservatives should still want to see their tax dollars spent on excellent infrastructure.
