Box 1968 <br />Sanford, NC 27331-1968 <br />SUBJECT: US Highway 1 <br />Dear Mr. Crumpton, <br />US 1 is being considered for wedging and resurfacing in the south bound lanes from a point approximately <br />0.90 miles north of Colon Road to the bridge over Colon Road. An accident history report indicates <br />• several run off the road accidents on this section of roadway in wet conditions. It is suspected that failure <br />to adjust speed for conditions and tire conditions of the vehicles involved are major contributors to the <br />accidents. In an effort to improve safety on this roadway segment we are recommending wedging the <br />existing pavement to improve drainage of surface water, however, we need a resolution supporting this <br />action from the Lee County Commissioners. <br />Your earliest consideration of this matter would be appreciated. If you need further information, please <br />advise. <br />Sincerely, <br />("e C <br />. E. Dumas, Jr., PE <br />District Engineer <br />CED <br />Cc: Mr. Tim Johnson, PE <br />Mr. Jeff Picklesimer, PE <br />File <br />Lee County <br />I'.O.
