Is it just me, or does it seem that I-40 around US 311 and Union Cross Rd in Forsyth Co. is quite a dangerous stretch of road? This weekends 5-fatality crash seems to underscore this. It seems that 'quite a few' accidents happen on this stretch.
I travel this section frequently, and except for a short section around the 311 interchange that seems easy to 'misguide' your car on, it's a fairly standard interstate. Traffic levels seem quite manageable except during the rush periods in the morning and afternoons. Does this section need to be 'upgraded' or 'redesigned' by DOT?
I think it could use another lane in each direction, like the stretch of I-40 in Durham, especially with the development starting in the Union Cross Rd area. To me, the vast difference in driver's speeds make it dangerous at times. Many drivers do 80+ in that area, along with the slower cars and semis traveling at or below the speed limit. Some people tend to get impatient behind the slower people and often make unsafe moves in traffic, like cutting other drivers off, tailgating, etc.

Sears is totally outdated, at least on the outside. I never see alot of people shop there though.
Yeah, that plain vanilla box of a building sticks out like a sore thumb, that 1973 design has worn thin. The only building more outdated is the Post Office, if anyone wants to know the orignal look of Friendly Center, just look at that post office.

HA! There is nothing 'grand' about SEARS. Unless you are shopping for old lady nightgowns, boy's Toughskin pants or Jolaps (aka bobos) shoes.
Most people I know only go there to buy tools or appliances anyway. That building does look outdated compared to the rest of Friendly Center, with the exception of the Post Office.

How about Grand Central Teeter?

We'll have to come up with a nickname for the new Harris Teeter, since the new one will be bigger than the current "Taj-ma-teeter".

It seems like if NCDOT were to install an HOV lane, It would be on I-40 from the Bus 40 split to "Death Valley", instead of I-85.
