What is the commute to Charlotte from Huntersville like?
Posted by jsdavisnc on December 19th, 2007
The commute has improved since the widening of I-77. There are delays in the morning and afternoon that can change the drive time from 15 minutes to 30 minutes. Traffic tends to flow a little better toward Charlotte because the lanes widen after exit 23 and an HOV lane was added at exit 18. Coming north in the afternoon often slows to a snail’s pace as lanes narrow at exit 23.
A new interchange for I-485 will open soon just north of exit 18. The jury is still out on what impact this will make on relieving or stressing the current traffic patterns.
I would love to hear more comments from the locals on this topic. Email your thoughts to jeffdavisrealty@aol.com
