Through the Department of Defense Army Account (Defense Access Road Program), which will go to the Department of Defense. The “Murchison Road Phase 2” project includes finance design, right-of-way, and construction of new off-installation entrances to Army activities which are urgently needed for improvement of existing highway which serve Army activities. The project widens approximately four miles of Murchison Road from four lanes to six lanes (to include interchanges at Randolph St. and Honeycut Road) to accommodate traffic redirected due to the closure of Ft. Bragg Boulevard that is needed for anti-terrorism and force protection. The project also includes road improvements to provide a new entrance to an existing elementary school. The second phase is for the Army's share of approximately two miles of six-lane Murchison Road from the Honeycutt Road past Butner Road tying into Spring Lake (including the Randolph Street interchange). Failure to provide funds will preclude both the improvement of Murchinson Road and the closure of Ft. Bragg Boulevard to non-DoD traffic. This will hinder Ft Bragg's ability to adequately secure the installation.
