Fearrington Homeowners Association (FHA): March 07, 2024 Update on Weathersfield 15/501 Intersection

NCDOT has notified us that work on the drainage, concrete islands, and sub asphalt work has been completed. The final top layer of asphalt, signage, and striping remains to be completed.

WEATHERSFIELD INTERSECTION — GOOD NEWS / ON MARCH 07, 2024 NCDOT HAS NOTIFIED US THAT NOW THAT WARMER WEATHER HAS ARRIVED, WORK ON THE FINAL TOP LAYER OF ASPHALT, SIGNAGE, AND STRIPING AT THE WEATHERSFIELD EXIT AND ENTRANCE CAN SOON BE COMPLETED.

Our residents will notice that they can now turn again left from southbound 501 to enter Weathersfield and can only turn right to head northbound on 501 from Weathersfield.

The left lane entry from 501 is still rough because cold weather prevents placing the final layer until the weather improves. Please use CAUTION when you are in that lane.

The traffic control (cones) in the old left turn exit lane from Weathersfield will remain in place until the pavement is re-striped to accommodate allowing right turns only.

Warren Ort
FHA Health Safety Security Director

FHA Heath, Safety & Security Mission

As stated in the Fearrington Homeowners Association (FHA) Articles of Incorporation, one of the important purposes of the FHA is to "provide for the health, safety and welfare" of the residents of Fearrington Village. As part of this important mission, and to comply with the Articles, the FHA works hard to develop and sustain policies, programs, and services that will help to keep village residents healthy and safe.

The FHA HSS Director oversees emergency preparedness, village road safety, and Community Watch information, sometimes working with ad hoc advisory committees.
At times in the past several years, over 35 residents have served in such advisory roles. Their work and support have been invaluable and very much appreciated.

In addition to its communication with Fearrington residents, the FHA HSS Director maintains collaborative relationships with the Chatham County Emergency Management Department and 911, Emergency Medical Services (FirstHealth/EMS), the Chatham County North Chatham Fire Department, the Chatham County Sheriff's Department, and traffic engineers at the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT, which is responsible for 54 state secondary roads in the village).
