The N.C. Department of Transportation is proposing to extend Rea Road 1.7 miles east from N.C. 16 (Providence Road) on a new location to existing N.C. 84 (Weddington Road) near Twelve Mile Creek Road in Weddington (the new roadway is expected to be signed as N.C. 84)
Proposed work also involves widening 2.7 miles of the existing N.C. 84 from two to four lanes from Twelve Mile Creek Road to Waxhaw-Indian Trail Road in Wesley Chapel.
The project will help improve the mobility and connectivity of N.C. 84 in Union County.
Without improvement, traffic volumes on N.C. 84 in 2035 are expected to exceed capacity in the project area.
