Sorry, but I don't think this article is ready in its current state. Some comments below.
The entire route lies within Mecklenburg County.needs a citation either here or elsewhere.
The segment of I-485 from here to I-85 is the latest segment of the Interstate, completed in 2015.; this is covered in the history section.
The interchange ramps were closed as part of a project to build express lanes along I-485 on August 1, 2023.and move to history section if necessary.
|Convert=
for all precise mileage figures.In 1975, planning began for the Charlotte outerbelt.are especially discouraged.
NCDOT could not immediately deal with the issue thanks to a 2000 policy that prevented the state using trust fund moneyto less opiniated language.
had begun the right-of-way acquisition phase with contracts awarded in June 2010.- Right-of-way is usually acquired before construction contracts are awarded. This needs to be clarified.
In 2003, the last 12.5 miles (20.1 km) needed to link main I-485 to its northern stub was completed, at a cost of $55.4 million (equivalent to $88 million in 2023[48]). Opening in two phases, the first 7.5-mile (12.1 km) segment opened on September 3, 2003, between University City Boulevard and NC 27 (Albemarle Road); two months later, the second five-mile (8.0 km) segment opened on November 19, between Albemarle Road and Lawyers Road.No need to mention "2003" or "the last 12.5 miles" in the first sentence, although I do wonder if both sections were planned to open at the same time. Suggest rewording to something like "The 7.5-mile (12.1 km) segment between University City Boulevard and NC 27 (Albemarle Road) opened on September 3, 2003. On November 19, 2003, the adjacent five-mile (8.0 km) segment extending to Lawyers Road opened. This linked main I-485 (specify what "main I-485" is) to its northern stub.
seven-mile (11 km) segment was noted that it would relieve traffic along the Billy Graham Parkway and provide an alternative route to Charlotte Douglas International Airport.- did these benefits come to fruition?
At a cost of $202.9 million, the 16.6-mile (26.7 km) I-485 Express Lanes project will establish new toll lanes along its entire planned route.- "its entire planned route" is ambiguous.
Construction was slated to begin "tentatively" in mid-2018, and is currently still going on as of 2024.- did construction start in mid-2018?
