Interested in learning more about the Ridgewalk Greenway project that will eventually connect Cates Creek Park with the Riverwalk/downtown and be solely for pedestrian/bike traffic? The town has completed their feasibility/action studies and are moving forward with an anticipated start date within the next 18-24 months.

The town of Hillsborough is conducting the South Churton Street Multimodal Corridor Study to develop design concepts that contribute to the town’s character while respecting the goals of a state-funded project to widen the road from Interstate 40 to the Eno River. Learn more about the state’s project plan.

This project will involve expanding Churton Street from the intersection with business 70 all the way down to the I-40 exit on old NC 86. It also plans to improve pedestrian routes, and entry/exit from the many businesses along the route. 

Although the project is not slated to break ground until FY2032, it is important to share your thoughts. There is an upcoming event hosted by the town on September 6th & 7th (time and place tbd) where town citizens can meet with city planners to share their concerns/ideas. Board members will be attending this event, so if you are unable to make it, please reach out to Sentry Management to ensure your board members hear your concerns.

The South Churton Street Multimodal Corridor Study is asking for input from Hillsborough and Orange County residents by asking you to take this survey.
