A Call to action
We are one step away from finishing a race we began in 1959! We are about to
either break the ribbon and finish first, or we'll fall on our faces, mere
inches from the finish line. Many have invested years, now you can do your
part in just minutes.
Call or email with this simple message.
I respectfully urge you to fully fund the Durham East End Connector (U-71)
in the 2007-2013 Transportation Improvement Program (T.I.P.).
Durham is one of the seven “urban loop” cities named in the original 1989
Highway Trust Fund legislation, yet, unlike the other loop cities, no project
has yet been built in Durham. There is a broad-based community consensus
behind the East End Connector, which is supported by business interests,
neighborhood organizations, and environmental groups alike.
Wake County, by contrast, has received over $800 million toward I-540, its
urban loop project. Additionally, $100’s of millions have been allocated for
new “urban loop” cities that were not named in the original Highway Trust
Fund legislation. The East End Connector (U-71) is the oldest unbuilt highway
project in the entire state, on the books since 1959.
In the interest of fairness, I ask you to please fully fund the Durham East
End Connector in the 2007-2013 state T.I.P
Support our Durham East End Connector, call or email ASAP!
