Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Greensboro public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
City Pavement Conditions and Maintenance Backlog
The city was set to consider a $2.33 million resurfacing agreement with NCDOT for Gate City Boulevard, plus the matching budget ordinance. Resurfacing means smoother rides and fewer potholes on a major corridor.
Road Construction
A sudden water main break created a sinkhole on South Benbow Road, meaning you'll want to avoid the area while city crews scramble to fix it.
Neighborhood Traffic Safety and Sidewalk Maintenance
At NCDOT's request, the city is lowering the speed limit on Fleming Road from 45 mph to 40 mph to improve traffic safety.
Traffic Enforcement
Greensboro city leaders just scrapped their plans to install red-light cameras because the price tag was simply too high. Instead of paying a fortune for the tech, the city is dropping the project entirely.
