 Road widening
Affected Counties:
 Pitt
Estimated Cost: $
 20,432,000

Description

The North Carolina Department of Transportation plans to widen 2.3 miles of Allen Road from Stantonsburg Road to US 13 in Greenville. This stretch of road is a major north-south link between Greenville’s medical district and Southwest Greenville Boulevard.

The road will be widened from two lanes to four lanes with a new 23-ft. median. Intersections at Allen Road and Stantonsburg Road and at US 13 (Dickinson Avenue Extension) will be upgraded, and new bike lanes and pedestrian walkways will be installed.

The purpose of the project is to help alleviate traffic concerns, increase traffic capacity, and minimize accidents.

Some residents are concerned about the changes, particularly those who live near certain subdivisions near Allen Road and near the intersection of Lakeforest Elementary School. Due to the new median dividing Allen Road, some owners will have to bypass their properties and make U-turns in order to access their properties.

There are only a handful of attorneys in NC who practice eminent domain exclusively, and even fewer with NCDOT experience. We have several. That’s why its worth getting in touch with us for a free case evaluation.

Here’s how it works:

1) Tell us about your situation.

2) We research your property as needed, using DOT maps, our own technology, and experience to see the exact effects.

3) We let you know what we think a fair offer would be. This evaluation is free, and there’s no
pressure or obligation to hire us after.

But please don’t wait to act. Waiting can hurt your case, and the cost is the same: free.
