Davidson to Vote on Reinstating I-77 South Toll Lane Project
What happened
Davidson leaders are expected to vote on reinstating the I-77 South toll lane project at the Charlotte Regional Transportation Planning Organization meeting on Wednesday night. Davidson is joining Cornelius, Huntersville, and Monroe in flipping previous positions to support the project. The push to reinstate the project was driven by the possibility of repaying millions of dollars to the North Carolina Department of Transportation if the project did not move forward.
