We will forward this information to Public Works for review, additional information will be posted once we hear back from them.

Per Public Works, Duraleigh Road is scheduled to have a lighting design produced by Duke Energy Progress this calendar year. Once the design is complete, the City and NCDOT must approve before cost estimates are prepared and installations can be scheduled. Depending on DEP's installation schedule and the estimated cost, lighting could possibly be installed in the months following the design approval.

Couple of questions. First is the section of Duraleigh I mentioned included in what is to be designed? Duraleigh is a long road and I know they are planing stuff for near the art museum but want to make sure this stretch is being included. Second what is a rough time line of when we could expect this sometime dangerous are (see last years ice storm) to have lights? Thanks for your help.

Thank you for contacting the city of Raleigh about this SeeClickFix request. Your request ID is 277811. We will be posting additional updates about your request as we have them.

The lighting design for Duraleigh Road would only be for the Glenwood Avenue to Rockwood Drive section; approximately 1.8 miles in length. A lighting design for Blue Ridge Road from the Rex Hospital area to Hillsborough Street would be included with any future roadway improvement plans at a later date.

Public Works staff is estimating that lighting could potentially be installed from Glenwood Ave. to Rockwood Dr. during the 2015-2016 budget year. This tentative plan is of course dependent on any issues that may occur during the design and/or installation process, the estimated up-front costs (budget limitations), and Duke Energy's installation schedule. Public Works currently has several other lighting projects in various stages of completion that are in the queue ahead of Duraleigh Road. Public Works and Duke Energy staff are working diligently to complete these.

Thanks for fixing this issue!
