Falls of Neuse Road Lane Additions

Fast Facts

NCDOT TIP # U-5826
Project Type: Lane additions
Affected Counties: Wake
Estimated Cost: $ 11,798,000

Description

The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) plans to add two additional lanes to a 0.9-mile stretch of Falls of Neuse Road, between I-540 and Durant Road in Raleigh. The road would change from four lanes to six with a median to separate traffic flow.

The lane additions are for the purpose of alleviating safety and traffic concerns.

Some affected residents have concerns, and they don’t believe widening the road justifies the damage to affected residential areas and neighborhoods. The NCDOT has not proposed any noise barriers to homes that back up to Falls of Neuse Road. Concerns are not only of property loss, but also decreased property values as a result of the potential for increased noise.

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.
