Project Overview:
In response to community interests, the Town has secured federal funding for the design and construction of protected bike infrastructure on West Cameron Avenue from Merritt Mill Road to North Columbia Street. “Protected” means that the bike lanes will be physically separated from the vehicle travel lanes by a raised concrete buffer or something that offers similar protection.
West Cameron Avenue is a main route for people on bikes traveling to and from UNC-Chapel Hill's campus. The Town wants to work with partners to make this route safer for everyone, especially the most vulnerable road users. This project follows a 2023 OWASA waterline replacement and will be installed at the same time as a much-needed street resurfacing.
The Town has hired the firm McAdams to lead the design and engineering phase of this project, which is expected to take 12-18 months. Our hope is to begin construction in Summer/Fall of 2026.
