Future extension to the north to Bass Lake - funding needed for construction

Walking

Future shared use path extension toward new development/Broad St/NC 55

26 Walking

Gaps in the pedestrian network here along Judd Pkwy and Stewart St - possible future develop- ment in this area as well The ballentine school is inaccessible via walking from anywhere outside of the Ballentine neigh- borhood. Connections along Hilltop Needmore and Sunset Lake Rd would be a huge benefit.

This intersection is getting tougher to cross.

44 Walking

Sidewalks along Sunset Lake RD between Ballentine Subdivision and the Harris Teeter shopping Center (Sunset and Broad) would be very useful! There is mention in previous documents of a greenway connecting Ballentine to downtown. I think that would be a wonderful addition.

Connect various sections together along Hilltop Needmore to meet Sunset Lake road walkway.

94 Needs improvement

Add walking feature north on Sunset Lake to meet up with existing sidewalk so as to be able to get to the shopping center. Many do Smith Farms residents make their own path from our subdivision to Products Road. It’s very sad to see families with small children riding bikes or strollers trying to safely connect to the stores and restaurants at the Fuquay Crossing Shopping Center.

No sidewalks currently available for walking

DICKENS RD

116 Walking

Sidewalk from Ballentine to products rd would make walking around the area safer.

117

Needs improvement

Agree with other suggestions that a sidewalk should be created to connect the Ballentine neighborhood to the Sunset Lake Commons area. This section currently requires one to walk along Sunset Lake Rd in the dirt/grass/mud and is unsafe for both pedestrians and drivers as the volume of traffic along Sunset Lake Rd continues to increase.

Would love access to walk or bike ride into town

127

Walking

Would like to see sidewalks on Sunset Lake Road connecting Bass Lake Road/Hilltop Needmore Road at least to Bentwinds. We live in Vintage Ridge and can not safely walk to any other neigh- borhood without walking on someone else’s property or on the road. There are portions of Judd parkway between Main Street and Broad that don’t yet have sidewalk which make walking or running the whole Judd loop not possible because of the narrow shoulder and blind curves

165 Walking

These woods are beautiful and should be preserved, with greenway trails added. The current possibility of a 4-lane road passing through this area would be an incredible loss to what could be a beautiful ecological benefit to the town. Need pedestrian crossing markings to keep crossing Herbert Akins safe as traffic there increas - es. Also need sidewalk along Sunset Bluffs common area. Greenway access along one of the Mill Ridge ponds would connect Mill Ridge and future Atwater developments to Herbert Akins schools.
