After delays, Robert Walker Drive set to re-open soon

After what was advertises as a three month closure has turned into six, the portion of Robert Walker Drive through the new West Branch neighborhood is set to re-open, possibly as soon as this Friday or next week.  That's according to Town Public Information Officer, Christina Shaul.

The below pictures are from this past weekend.  Additional work was done on Monday near the Davidson-Concord Road intersection so work is closer to completion than shown here.

This comes as the first spec houses and model homes are beginning to come out of the ground on the site.  In addition to the two shown here, there are at least 4 other lots with foundation slabs in place.

From a walk of the greenway this past weekend it appears actual home construction during 2018 will likely only be taking place on the southern half of the overall project site.  The northern end does not even have the beginnings of the road infrastructure started.

When completed, West Branch will add 300+ homes to Davidson.  A planned road connection will connect the back side of the neighborhood to Hudson Place.  (See red circled area below.)
