We purchased our home back in 1990 with the understanding that the southern outer loop would run where the orange route is. Furthermore the other route runs through our neighborhood's water source. NO to the blue-purple route.

After moving to Fuquay because of the urban feel and space I have seen Crooked Creek close and the possibility of the 540 extension coming to my street is going to kill the reason I moved there.

The “ Purple-Blue-Lilac Route”
a) The negative impact would be the immediate displacement of our neighbors.
b) The “ Blue” route would impact a wellhead that supplies all of our Brooksotone subdivision. Pollution of our water source by the run off of oil and gas from the 6-lane turnpike is of great concern both for the environment and for the health of those having to us the well water…
c) Within our subdivision of 6600 Walnut Cove Drive , is a missionary home, owned by “Highland Baptist Church“. The monies to purchase this home came from the Last Will and Testament of Millard Gower in November 1993. The church, as of present has made provisions of the use of this home for the next four years. Each missionaries stay is approximately for one year.
d) Rock Service Station Road is a major BUS ROUTE for ALL of Wake County’s grade levels and presently, children are waiting for the buses in the dark @ 5:30 AM. This presents an immediate danger to our children’s safety.
2) Wake County Park has a future park site called the “Southeast Wake County Park”, bordering HWY, 42 and Old Stage Road, and Barber Bridge Road. By 2004 this park had acquired multiple tracts, totaling 235 acres and with the hope of acquiring another 100 acres. This park has significant WETLANDS AND WILDLIFE.
3) There is also the issue of having an historical site in this area, “The Nathan Blalock Home”.
4) For retired people, who made an informed decision and having planned accordingly with the knowledge of the “protected proposed ORANGE” area and then purchased in the now “BLUE ALTERNATIVE ROUTE”, would be an emotional and financial disaster.
5) The “BLUE ALTERNDATE ROUTE” will be the most costly to build and displace the most homes and businesses . It has more highway mileage to construct.
>>> I recommend that ORANGE Route be chosen! And Lets MOVE ON!!!

All of the alternatives to the Orange route impact more people. Not just those whose homes would be taken, but also those who would find themselves adjacent to a highway. The fair thing to do is to stay with the Orange route.

Go with the Orange route only. It was approved for decades and people have done due diligence and made their house purchasing decision around that information. Do not deceive us now

The Orange route makes the most sense given the impact the Blue Purple route will have in one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Holly Springs.

A 15+ year resident of Fuquay Varina and business owner with multiple retail stores in the impacted areas I recently purchased a new home that is within the ‘Purple Route’ corridor and that my business is run out of with the understanding that the ‘Orange Route’ was the selected route east of where 540 currently ends in Holly Springs at Hwy 55. That said, force me to move and I may move my retail businesses as well, which in addition to the employment to local residents is responsible for $300,000+ annually in Sales & Use Tax Revenue to the State & impacted Counties including Wake!

All these public meetings and hearings are just delaying tactics. NCDOT has already purchased too much land in the Orange Route for that not to be the corridor selected. They ALREADY KNOW THAT IT IS GOING TO BE THE ORANGE ROUTE. All the “hoopla” just delays the process a little bit longer. Section 136-44.50 (d) of the Map Act states (d) Within one year following the establishment of a transportation corridor official map or amendment, work shall begin on an environmental impact statement or preliminary engineering. The failure to begin work on the environmental impact statement or preliminary engineering within the one-year period shall constitute an abandonment of the corridor, and the provisions of this Article shall no longer apply to properties or portions of properties embraced within the transportation corridor.
This should have been settled back in 1997.
Anything they can to do delay the process they will. NCDOT is above the law and the State of NC lets them get away with it. It took less than 10 years to put a man on the moon but they cannot build a road in 20.
