WALKERTOWN – Transportation officials will hold a meeting to present draft options and seek input on the proposed widening of N.C. 66 from Harley Drive to U.S. 158 in Forsyth County.
The meeting will be held Thursday, March 22, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Morris Chapel United Methodist Church, located at 2715 Darrow Road in Walkertown.
The project will address capacity issues along this section of the corridor. It would also address other goals of local transportation officials, such as enhancing safety, accommodating bicyclists and pedestrians, and supporting regional mobility.
