Lake Boone Trail Now Closed

barrelDrivers hoping to cross inside/outside the beltline (440) at Lake Boone Trail beware. Construction of a greenway underpass has Lake Boone Trail closed between Horton Drive and Ridge Road. Therefore anyone wishing to go ITB from 440 needs to consider two alternatives: Take Wade Avenue inbound or take the Ridge Road exit near Crabtree. Those inside the beltline seeking WhichWich, Chubby’s, Rex Hospital, and other businesses in that area should detour via either Wade Avenue to 440E or access 440W at Glenwood by accessing 440E at the end of Ridge Road, immediately taking the Glenwood exit, turning left, and accessing 440E via the loop ramp. CAT bus routes 4 and 38 are also affected by this closure.

The road will be closed for approximately one month.

    Can’t you take Horton from Ridge to Lake Boone? That is what the detour sign says….

    Thanks for the headsup. I don’t recall seeing it anywhere else in the news.

    Good point, VaNC. Horton is fine if you are moving from/to the Lacy area to/from the Lake Boone shopping center area.

    Horton has become extremely busy! There are always a few cars at the stop sign at the Horton/Ridge intersection. I’m sure there are many more speeders than usual zooming through the Palms apartments, and it is all day, not just during carpool.
