Existing Conditions Town Hall Drive serves as the heart of the Town of Morrisville, with numerous civic uses, neighborhood connections, and multimodal accommodations. Town Hall Drive currently terminates at McCrimmon Parkway; however, a proposed extension to Town Hall Drive would connect the facility to NC 147. Proposed growth and improvements along this corridor will need to accommodate potential changes in travel patterns while remaining flexible to serve local needs. Recommendations Recommendations for Town Hall Drive are centered around the Town Center Core Vision Plan, which aims to create a central gathering place for the larger Morrisville community. The site is planned to be anchored by various civic uses (Community Center, Library, Morrisville Town Hall) and the future Town Green. Scenario testing explored the impact of the Town Center Core, the Town Hall Drive extension, and continued mixed-use development growth along the corridor. Preliminary recommendations include a roundabout paired with a street extension at Carolina Street and shared lane markings down Town Hall Drive.
