What was going to interchange with NC 147 between Ellis Road and Briggs Avenue? --NE2 23:33, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

That's a good question and I don't know for sure, but it seems to me like they were planning for a future connector between 147 and US 70. If you look at this [Strategic Highway Corridors map] for the Triangle area, you can see there is a planned link between the two highways at almost the exact location of the "bowing out" in the highway. That's my best educated guess at this point. I've driven by that segment a few times and it does look like it was built to accomodate some type of intersection. --TinMan 20:37, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the link. That does appear to be its purpose. --NE2 20:39, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Here's the NCDOT's plan for that connector: [1]. --TinMan 06:02, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Exits section

The Exits section needs major cleanup - it's pretty unreadable now. Why not a list, table, etc.? Jpp42 11:37, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

I created a table. Feel free to modify it, clean it up, or otherwise change it. See Help:Table if you need syntax assistance. Nimur 22:24, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
