Gum Branch Road Turn Lanes

Fast Facts

Project # U-5319
Type: Turn lanes
Affected Counties: Onslow
Estimated Cost: $4,815,000

Description

The NCDOT will add a left turn lane from each direction of Gum Branch Road (SR 1308) where it intersects with Western Blvd. (NC 53) near the Lowe’s Foods and CVS in Jacksonville.

Both Western Blvd. and Gum Branch Road are heavily traveled corridors in this area of Onslow County causing traffic back-ups at this intersection. Additionally, more residential development in this area will make the traffic issue worse going forward. The left turn lanes here as well as additional improvements along Western Blvd. and Gum Branch Road are part of an overall larger effort to help alleviate congestion in this growing area of Onslow County.

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.
