Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thoroughfare Plan for Northampton County: December 1995 This report documents the findings of a study of Northampton County's Thoroughfare System that began in 1992 and culminated in the mutual adoption of the 1995 Northampton County Thoroughfare Plan. The adopted Northampton County Thoroughfare Plan is shown in Figure 1. Northampton County is located in the northeastern portion of the state. The county is bounded on the north by the Virginia Counties of Brunswick, Greenville, and Southampton, by Hertford County on the east, by Bertie and Halifax County on the south, and by Warren County on the west. The location of Northampton County is shown in Figure 2. The Statewide Planning Branch was contacted in 1992 by the Northampton County Commissioners to adequately plan for the future transportation needs of the county. In conjunction with the Northampton County Thoroughfare Study, the Statewide Planning Unit began the update of the Garysburg Thoroughfare Plan, which was completed in 1994. A report on Gaston, Roanoke Rapids, and Weldon was completed in 1992. In June 1993, the staff from Statewide Planning met with the local officials to determine the transportation needs of the area. The primary concern of the County Commissioners' was the US 158 Intrastate corridor. US 158 is the major east west corridor in.the county, and this facility is scheduled to be improved to a four lane facility between 2002 and 2007. The thoroughfare plan will be used as a guide for the improvement of US 158. During the study, it was noted that several other facilities needed to be studied. One, was a connector between US 158 and I - 95, which was accomplished in the Garysburg Thoroughfare Plan. The others, were bypasses around Faison's Old Tavern, Jackson, Conway, Rich Square, and Woodland that are needed to relieve congestion and truck traffic.
