What are the benefits of the proposed Pedestrian Grade Separation? How will that be paid for?
An $800,000 grant from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will contribute to the planning, engineering, design and construction of a pedestrian underpass in the town of Clayton. The NCDOT, NCRR, Norfolk Southern and town of Clayton also have agreed to contribute funds. The underpass will provide a safe, secure, and convenient path for pedestrians from a residential neighborhood to reach the downtown area with its grocery stores, shopping, jobs, and government offices.
