Streets Project Spotlight: Congestion Mitigation
We've all been there – sitting in traffic for what seems like hours. Charlotte has seen significant population growth over the years and that adds more stress on the city's transportation network in the form of congestion. Good news! By voting YES for the bonds, you can help fund congestion mitigation in three booming areas of the city: South Charlotte, Steele Creek and University City.
Included in the streets bond is approximately $7.6 million for projects including adding turn lanes at intersections, extending existing lanes or making connections to enhance the street grid.
To learn more about the Mitigate Congestion project, please visit the City of Charlotte Department of Transportation website.

Frequently Asked Question
 
 
Q: Some of the roads, intersections and neighborhoods that are getting bond monies seem fine the way they are. Why do we need to renovate or improve them?
 
A: Needed repairs may not be apparent to the untrained eye. City engineers monitor our infrastructure carefully and have detailed, long-range plans for maintenance and improvement. Whether a private residence or a city street, the process is ongoing and becomes more expensive if not properly and diligently managed.
