Walking

Existing greenway trails - old golf course; future school and park

Walking

Future large retail development - will include new 4-6 lane road connection between US 401 and NC 42 - street will include a sidepath and an at-grade crossing of the railroad Intersection improvement needed - tricky to get across, many people try (lots of goat paths); NC 55 will be realigned here (NCDOT project U-5751) 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 neighbor- hood. Connections along Hilltop Needmore and Sunset Lake Rd would be a huge benefit.

The fact that you can’t walk to the walking trails at Hilltop Needmore park is ridiculous.

Walking

This intersection is getting tougher to cross.

Walking

Sidewalks along Sunset Lake RD between Ballentine Subdivision and the Harris Teeter shopping Center (Sunset and Broad) would be very useful!

Missing sidewalk, dangerous for walkers

Walking

There is mention in previous documents of a greenway connecting Ballentine to downtown. I think that would be a wonderful addition. The corner of Fuquay Ave and Academy has a 5” ledge from the road to the sidewalk where the blacktop was laid and not tapered. It is not ADA COMPLIANT and is impossible to negotiate in a wheelchair or using a stroller. Actually all road accesses are pretty lousy along Fuquay Ave except for the art center crossing at Vance St.

There are very few sidewalks along Stewart St. I’d love to be able to walk to downtown from my home.

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

94

Add walking feature north on Sunset Lake to meet up with existing sidewalk so as to be able to get to the shopping center. Restaurants and groceries. Walking from neighborhoods to the south along Judd Parkway part of the way. 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.
