Are You Interested in Becoming Involved in the Future of Highway 160?

Berewick Recreation Center

(March 9, 2013) At its annual meeting last week, the Steele Creek Residents Association unanimously passed the following resolution:

The citizens of Steele Creek respectfully request that MUMPO raise the priority of widening Highway 160 from I-485 to the South Carolina state line for the safety of our residents due to increased traffic from new retail and residential developments and from South Carolina.

Over the coming months and years, the Mecklenburg-Union Metropolitan Planning Organization (MUMPO) will be establishing criteria for ranking potential highway projects and preparing those rankings. The residents of Steele Creek need to monitor and participate in this process to ensure that Highway 160 is given proper attention.

The Steele Creek Residents Association would like to identify persons who might be able to be involved in the process. The next MUMPO meeting is on March 20, and we would like to meet and discuss possible courses of action before then.

If you are interested in participating in efforts to promote the widening Highway 160, please contact the Residents Association at info@steelecreekresidents.org.
