The CRTPO - Charlotte Regional Transportation Planning Organization is developing a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan focused on one important goal: reducing traffic-related deaths and serious injuries across our region.

But understanding where change is needed starts with the people who travel our roads every day. Whether you drive, walk, bike, ride transit, or get around another way, your experiences matter.

Your feedback will help inform future safety recommendations and investments to make travel safer for everyone. Take the survey at https://safestreetsforus.com/.

The Indian Trail Town council approved the five-year capital improvement plan (CIP) at Tuesday's meeting. This doesn't mean all the projects will be completed and paid for at this time! Some are funded, some partially, some are yet to have any funds. This is the plan, where the town is headed. Check it out here:

Even with the rain over the past month, we're still in a drought. For those of us on wells, it can be stressful knowing how close we are to running out of groundwater. Thankfully, the state NCDEQ has map and graph for that.

For reference, elevation at Indian Trail Town hall is 686 feet. You can find your elevation using the county GIS maps or figure that the lowest elevation in Indian Trail is about 600 feet.

Statistical curves are monthly minimum, mean, & maximum of the record through 2025. Red points are 2026, latest date in month data. Statistics based on all DWR data for well.

From NC DOT:

The public has a new way to keep tabs on transportation projects that are underway or upcoming, whether they are in a nearby neighborhood or across the state.

The N.C. Department of Transportation recently launched an interactive online tool called Projects Near Me, where people can explore a map featuring a wide range of state transportation project data. https://www.ncdot.gov/projects/ProjectsNearMe/default.aspx

The map is searchable by address, making it easy to find projects near any location, and by project identification number in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). It can also display projects by county or NCDOT Highway Division.

Additional filters allow users to search the map by project type — aviation, bicycle and pedestrian, bridge and structure, ferry, highway, public transportation, rail, and other miscellaneous projects. The map can also display indicators for projects that are of high public interest, have public engagement, or are future projects.

Users can click on any map pin to display more project information, including a local map and description of the work, milestones for those that are committed for funding in the current STIP, and contact information.

The data behind the Projects Near Me map is subject to change as projects evolve. The map does not feature data on travel impacts associated with current transportation projects.

People should continue to use DriveNC.gov as the trusted source for real-time traffic information across North Carolina.​ https://www.drivenc.gov/
