Resurfacing Projects with New Bike Lanes

As part of our annual street resurfacing process, we look for opportunities to improve safety and mobility for everyone on Chapel Hill streets. Not only do we improve the quality of the pavement and adjust markings and signage, but we also implement recommendations from our adopted Mobility and Connectivity Plan when we can. Although resurfacing doesn't widen roads or add sidewalks, it often allows us to add bike lanes where there currently aren't any.

NCDOT has a similar resurfacing process and consults with us to identify opportunities for improvements on State-owned roads.

Upcoming Town Projects

Pinehurst Dr. from Burning Tree Dr. to Ephesus Church Rd.

• This spring, you can expect to see fresh pavement and new bike lanes on this stretch of Pinehurst Dr.
• This is a very wide street. As part of the resurfacing, bike lanes will replace space that is sometimes used for parking.
• Adding these bikes lanes is part of our adopted Mobility and Connectivity Plan. They'll also help connect NC-54 to Ephesus Church Rd.

Bolinwood Dr. from Hillsborough St. to the Bolin Creek Trail

• This spring, you can expect to see fresh pavement on all of Bolinwood Dr. and new bike lanes on this small stretch.
• As part of resurfacing, bike lanes will replace space that is sometimes used for parking.
• Adding these bike lanes will provide a safe connection from Hillsborough St. to the Bolin Creek Trail.

Upcoming NCDOT Projects

N. Estes Dr. from Caswell Rd. to Library Dr.

• We're actively working with NCDOT to add bike lanes and enhance crossings.
• We expect the work to happen this summer.
