The design work has already begun and construction is scheduled to start in June. <strong>summer 2026<\/strong>. This approach is similar to other initiatives aimed at optimizing efficiency, such as those you can find in <a href=\"https:\/\/dicasdereforma.com.br\/en\/redacao-inteligente-de-clausulas-em-contratos-de-construcao-agora-facilita-a-resolucao-de-conflitos\/\">construction contracts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"umgrandeinvestimentonaestrada\">A Major Investment on the Road<\/h3>\n<p>This project is the first of three planned by the North Carolina DOT, totaling <strong>$635 million<\/strong>. The aim is to add capacity and carry out other improvements along a stretch of <strong>10 miles<\/strong> of the I-85. Bids for a segment that goes from <strong>McAdenville Road<\/strong> (exit 23) to the <strong>U.S. 321 exchange<\/strong> (exit 17) should be announced by the end of <strong>2028<\/strong>.
