MEMORANDUM TO: Project Scoping Participants
FROM: Jerry P. Page, PE DocuSignedby:
Division Project Engineer E A34DC
SUBJECT: Project Information for the Intersection Improvements at NC 24/27
and SR 1006 (Glendon-Carthage Rd) and the Adjacent
Intersections with US 15/501 in Moore County, TIP No. R-5929
WBS No. 48547.1.1
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) Division 8 is beginning the project
development, environmental, and engineering studies for the R-5929 project. The project
proposes intersection improvements at NC 24/27 and SR 1006 (Glendon-Carthage Road), as well
as with the adjacent intersections of each segment with US 15/501. The project is included in the
North Carolina Department of Transportation's approved 2020-2029 State Transportation
Improvement Program and is scheduled for right-of-way acquisition in fiscal year 2023 and
construction in fiscal year 2025.
NCDOT is preparing a state Minimum Criteria Determination Checklist (MCDC) for this project.
NCDOT has made the preliminary determination that the project will not proceed through the
Merger Process.
In lieu of holding an in-person scoping meeting, NCDOT is providing the attached project
information and maps. We welcome your input on the proposed project R-5929, and we would
appreciate any information that may be helpful in evaluating the potential environmental
effects. If applicable, please identify any permits or approvals which may be required by your
organization. Please provide your input by March 7, 2022. If you have any questions concerning
the project, please contact me at 252-230-8834 or by email at [e-mail]. Please
include the STIP Project Number (R-5929) in all correspondence and comments.

Project History IFFW
Planning Studies IThe project is not included in the Moore County Comprehensive
Transportation Plan (CTP) (June 2020). However, the CTP does
include U-3628, improvements to a segment of NC 24/27 (Monroe
Street)that includes the project intersection. The project is listed in the
North Carolina Department of Transportation NCDOT 2020-2029

State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) as project R-5929
has a Division funded project.
SPOT Description Improve intersection at US 15/US 501 and NC 24-27 in Carthage.
Could also include improvements to nearby intersections at US 15 /
US 501 and Glendon-Carthage Rd, NC 24-27 and Glendon-Carthage
Rd, and US 15/ US 501 and Union Church Rd.
Feasibility Studies Project Scoping Technical Report completed July 2019 for the NCDOT
Feasibility Studies Unit
Problem Statement The proposed project would facilitate better access to US 15/501 and
remove dangerous crossing movements for the existing NC 24/27
(Monroe Street)access to US 15/501.
Alternatives Previously Other options considered included modifying Option 1 to include a
Dismissed and Why second roundabout at the intersection of Glendon-Carthage Road and
US 15/501. Additionally, instead of terminating at Glendon-Carthage
Road, Monroe Street would continue to US 15/501. Another option
included a single large roundabout, connecting Glendon-Carthage
Road, Monroe Street, and US 15/501. In this option, all traffic would
pass through the roundabout. These options were dismissed in
consultation with local government partners.
Purpose &Need
Purpose Facilitate better access to US 15/US 501 and remove dangerous
crossing movements for the existing NC 24/27 (Monroe Street)
access to US 15/501. An adjacent project (U-3628)would widen NC
24/27 to a three-lane section with curb and gutter and
bicycle/pedestrian accommodations to address safety and
operational issues.
Need(s) Needed for the safe movement of future through traffic on NC 24/NC
27 and adjacent roads; R-5929 will be coordinated with U-3628 to
provide safer movements throughout this local network
