Intersection Improvements at Hamilton Road and Highway 160 are Finally Complete!

(October 29, 2021) After many years of waiting and promises of progress, the Steele Creek Residents Association stepped in to escalate the completion of the final stages this project within the Charlotte Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). With the help of Councilwoman Victoria Watlington, Nan Peterson of the City Planning Department was assigned as a resource to move the project forward in early August. Nearly three months later, the improved intersection is now fully complete and traffic is flowing safely.

The following photographs were taken on October 29.

The last of the orange barrels were removed today, October 29, so construction work is now complete and traffic can flow freely and safely.

The seven and a half acres on the southwest corner (where the house is) have been rezoned for 32 townhouses. See Rezoning Petition 2018-077- A site Plan Amendment has been submitted for this property. See Rezoninig Petition 2021-075.
