Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
The following requirements must be met before a county road
					 will be added to the secondary road system, provided, however, that the Board
					 of Transportation reserves the right not to add a road to the system if it is
					 evident that the cost of improving said road to minimum standards is excessive
					 within the funds presently available for maintenance and construction within
					 the county:
(1) Addition of county
				  roads to the system.
(a) Property owners must
				  dedicate, free of charge, a right of way sufficient for maintenance and safety
				  purposes. A minimum width of 50 feet for connecting roads and 45 feet for dead
				  end roads is required.
(b) Roads
				  one mile or less in length must have at least five occupied residences fronting
				  the road or with direct entrance to the road. These residences must be all-year
				  residences. If a summer resort, each residence counts as one-half a
				  residence.
(c) Roads of one or more
				  miles in length must have an average of five occupied residences per mile
				  fronting or having direct entrance to the road.
(d) There must be at least two individual
				  property owners on the road.
North Carolina Administrative Code › Title 19A - TRANSPORTATION › Chapter 02 - DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS › Subchapter C - SECONDARY ROADS SECTION › Section .0100 - SECONDARY ROADS › Section 02C .0104 - IMPROVEMENT OF ROADS ADDED TO THE HIGHWAY SYSTEM

Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a)
				  When a county road is added to the highway system, the road shall be
				  maintained. The addition of the road to the secondary road system does not
				  imply that this road shall be widened, improved, stabilized or paved.
(b) The general improvement of a road
				  recently added to the system shall be considered in light of the service that
				  the road renders to the general traveling public. Dead end roads for example,
				  may not necessarily receive the same level of maintenance service as connecting
				  roads receive.

Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a)
				  Subdivision-Residential Roads. Those roads which are eligible to be paved on a
				  property owner participating basis will be administered according to the
				  following procedure:
(1) The property owners
				  or their representative may contact the division engineer or his representative
				  to determine whether or not the road in question is eligible for paving on a
				  participating basis. If all property owners agree to pay four dollars ($4.00)
				  per linear foot to have the road paved they are determined eligible for paving
				  on a participating basis.
(2) If
				  the division engineer or his representative determines that the road in
				  question is eligible to be paved on a participating basis, he will so inform
				  the property owners or their representative. He will then make a survey to
				  determine the length of the road in question and will submit to the property
				  owners or their representative a letter stating the cost, at a rate of four
				  dollars ($4.00) per linear foot, for each side of the road, to the property
				  owners for the road to be paved and the approximate date when the work can be
				  completed.
(3) The property owners
				  must then present to the division engineer or his representative a certified
				  check made payable to the Department of Transportation, Division of Highways
				  for the entire amount as stated in Subparagraph (a)(2) of this Rule. Once this
				  has been accomplished, work will proceed as soon as DOT staff and supplemental
				  funds are available.

Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) The paving
				  of unpaved roads in any county is based upon the total needs which take into
				  account land use and public service characteristics, traffic characteristics,
				  and general route characteristics.
(b) A priority rating sheet is developed for
				  each unpaved secondary road in the county as a guide line and the roads are
				  then rated by priority, and as funds are available, the Board of Transportation
				  attempts to meet the needs of the county.

Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) The Board of Transportation may review
				  requests for access road improvements to industrial or manufacturing projects
				  as a part of the statewide effort to attract new industry to North Carolina.
				  Projects eligible for assistance from the Department of Transportation may be
				  the construction or expansion of any industrial or manufacturing factory, mill,
				  assembly or fabricating, or industrial research development or laboratory
				  facility, or industrial processing facility. The Board of Transportation may
				  individually review the economic impact of the location of distribution
				  facilities for distributing manufactured goods. The number of employees and the
				  amount of truck traffic shall be primary justification for assistance with road
				  improvements. Approval of such requests shall be based primarily upon the
				  initial number of employees as compared to the road improvement cost. The
				  initial investment in the project and the precedent of past approvals by the
				  Board of Transportation for similar projects will be considered. The particular
				  county involved shall be considered as to current economic
				  development.
(b) In the case of
				  Paragraph (a) of this Rule, the access road alignment shall be determined by
				  the Department of Transportation, and the right-of-way shall be dedicated at no
				  cost to the Department of Transportation. Such access road improvements shall
				  terminate at the property line of the project. The road improvements involved
				  must become a part of the state maintained system as required by
				  G.S.
				  136-44.2.
(c) The Board of Transportation may consider
				  the addition of an access road constructed by others to the state maintenance
				  system. The construction standards for such a road shall be determined by the
				  Division Engineer based upon the intended use of the roadway.

Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) The Department
				  of Transportation may assist the individual counties in the construction of
				  roads to serve county supervised landfills by either participating with the
				  financing, by doing the construction on a 100 percent reimbursable basis or by
				  assuming the total construction cost after it has been determined to what
				  degree that secondary road improvement funds allocated to that county may be
				  available. The construction cost of the road to serve the landfill must be of a
				  reasonable nature when compared to the total needs of the county as well as
				  available funds. The road shall become a part of the state maintained system
				  and a right of way width to be determined by the Department of Transportation
				  must be dedicated to the Department of Transportation at no cost and the
				  division of highways must be allowed to utilize the landfill for dumping
				  purposes free of charge.
(b) The
				  initiation of such a project shall be by a resolution from the board of county
				  commissioners recommending the use of county allocated funds to partially or
				  totally fund the road. The resolution must also state that the Division of
				  Highways can utilize the landfill.
