North Carolina is investing in the future of its communities with a total of $2.06 million in state grants, which will be used to fund feasibility studies for 25 cities, towns, and counties. These grants, approved by the N.C. Board of Transportation, will allow local municipalities like Hildebran and Long View to explore the possibility of adding sidewalks, bicycle paths, and greenways to their communities. With an additional $388,000 in supplemental funding from the US Department of Transportation, Long View and Hildebran will receive the full cost of the feasibility studies. The purpose of the studies is to evaluate the viability of a transportation project, complete initial design and environmental reviews, and develop implementation strategies. Each study will involve public input to ensure the best possible outcomes. With this investment, North Carolina is paving the way to a brighter future.
