Kelly Road (SR 1521)
Kelly Road is expected to be over capacity by the year 2035. Additionally, plans for the area call for the
realignment of Kelly Road to bypass the educational campus area around Central Carolina Community
College. Improvements are necessary in order to ensure that this corridor can serve the anticipated
traffic with an acceptable level of service and to accommodate the planned development of the
educational campus.
The following language supporting the project is taken from the draft Lee County Comprehensive
Transportation Plan document (still in development at this time):
“Kelly Dr is recommended to be widened to a 4-lane divided boulevard facility with a bicycle
lane. At the southern end of the roadway, it is recommended to be realigned to the other side
of the civic center. The existing portion of Kelly Dr that will be bypassed by the realignment in
the vicinity of the community college and civic center is recommended to be improved to a 2lane divided local street with sidewalks and bicycle facilities.
From Nash St (SR 1519) through the community college area (0.42 miles), Kelly Dr has 3 12-foot
lanes, including a continuous center turn lane. The current capacity of this segment is 12,300
vehicles per day (vpd) and the current traffic volume is 7,300 vpd. This section is not over
capacity in 2004. From the end of the 3-lane section and northeast to Pumping Station Rd (SR
1510) (1.38 miles), Kelly Dr has 2 9-foot lanes. Current capacity of this segment is 7,300 vpd and
the current traffic volume is 7,300 vpd. This segment is at capacity in 2004. The 9-foot lanes on
this roadway are substandard given the traffic volumes, truck traffic, and school buses that use
the facility. A sharp curve is a safety concern to the City of Sanford.
The projected future (2035) traffic volume for Kelly Dr is 26,000 vpd. The entire roadway will be
over capacity in 2035 if no construction takes place. The recommended boulevard cross-section
has a capacity of 45,400 vpd. If construction takes place, no portion of Kelly Dr will be over
capacity in 2035.
Kelly Dr serves local traffic headed towards the high school, community college, and civic center.
Kelly Dr also serves through traffic. The portion of the future US 421 Bypass that has been
completed, known locally as the Colon-Kelly connector, ends at Kelly Dr. Through traffic is using
the portion of the bypass and Kelly Dr to get to US 421 South and NC87 South. Some of the
regional use will subside once the entire bypass is complete. Kelly Dr is expected to remain a
major route into Sanford’s suburban business district when the bypass is complete.
Crash rates for Kelly Dr are currently not at or above the state average. Given the large amount
of school buses, trucks, and student drivers that use the facility, the recommended
improvements would improve safety. Currently students and faculty of the community college
park along Kelly Dr in the vicinity of the college. If Kelly Dr is realigned, safety along the bypassed
portion of the existing roadway could be improved for those parking along the road.
Problem Statement Developed in 2011 by TARPO for SPOT 2.0
This road serves the community college and high school. As the need for higher education
continues to be emphasized, it is expected that the number of high school students also taking
classes at the community college will increase. Having the existing portion of Kelly Dr near the
schools serve only local traffic will help students who spend time at both campuses. The City of
Sanford plans for this area to further develop as an educational village, so realigning Kelly Dr to
the southeast will help create a campus atmosphere that is not bisected by a through route.
Having continuous 4-lane access to the civic center will also make it a more attractive location to
host regional events. The community college has an option to purchase the piece of land directly
across Kelly Dr from its existing location. The community college plans to act on that option and
expand its campus, creating further need for the realignment of Kelly Dr.”
