U-5901: Airport Parkway - Salisbury

The proposed Airport Parkway project includes constructing a new two-lane roadway in the vicinity of the Mid-Carolina Regional Airport between Jake Alexander Boulevard and Peeler Road at U.S. 29.

Accommodations for pedestrians, bicycles, and transit are also being evaluated as part of the project.

Conceptual alignment alternatives and design concepts are under development at this time.

Environmental studies are underway and are anticipated to be complete in 2020.

Your help in gathering data and local information along with your comments on conceptual alignments and potential cross sections is needed.

Please take a few minutes and review the information and questions below and provide as much information as possible.

The area of Mooresville Road west of Rowan Mills is heavily residential an as such is a peaceful area. Please do not destroy the beauty of this area by building a road intended to carry large amounts of traffic through that area - including through the established residential dev...See More

As a taxpayer, I do not believe tax dollars need to be spent on this project regardless of the route taken. It is just not needed! As a homeowner potentially affected by this project I strongly object to the use of any portion of the Summerfield subdivision being used. You will ...See More

Please do not disrupt the serenity of the subdivisions that would be affected by the Navy route. Summerfield and Forest glen in particular would be adversely effected with the Navy route which would traverse in between the 2 subdivisions and be in the back yards of multiple home...See More

I would like to think the DOT could do better than this . It looks like many of the new routes are going through residential areas or a golf course. I think improving the road system we already have in place would be a lot better than building a new roads and bridges
