Brak wants to know, "When will I 540 make it down to Holly Springs, NC"?

Question

Traffic is expected to worsen as time goes by.

I 540 is the Wake county expressway.

It circles Raleigh.

Answer 1

Agree with the previous poster, but I'll add that it won't be I-540...instead it will be NC 540, a toll-road.  The NCDOT is about out of money to build new roads, so they're handing off that project to the new Turnpike Authority to build.

Answer 2

Well in 2008 and 2009 expect an increasing pressure of traffic.

and in 2010 expect major strain.

It should reach the other side of NC 55 by late 2011.

Sorry, but we won't see anything good til 2011.
