The N.C. Department of Transportation proposes to widen Idlewild Road to a multi-lane, median-divided roadway approximately 500 feet west of Barney Drive to Rockwell Drive, modify the existing I-485 interchange with a “Diverging Diamond” interchange (DDI), and construct a roundabout at the intersection of Idlewild Road and Stallings Road, in Mecklenburg and Union Counties.
The purpose of this project is to provide additional traffic carrying capacity along Idlewild Road, provide accommodations for bicycles and pedestrians, and provide improvements for the intersections at Stallings Road, Steven Mills Road, and the I-485 interchange.
A public meeting is scheduled for:
Thursday July 25, 2019

5627 Poplin Road

The purpose of this meeting is to inform the public of the project and gather input on the proposed design.
The public may attend at any time during the public meeting hours, as no formal presentation will be made.
