The signature red steel bridge over Wade Avenue in West Raleigh opens Saturday, providing safe passage for cyclists and pedestrians along a stretch of Blue Ridge Road near the N.C. Museum of Art . The bridge and connecting sidewalks are the first in what could be several changes in how people move about the area around the Lenovo Center as it develops into a 24-hour destination in coming years. It’s a milestone in the development of the area, said Nathan Spencer of the West Raleigh Alliance, a community group . “This bridge is the culmination of years of work by the alliance, in partnership with NCDOT and the City of Raleigh, to create a safe, dedicated pedestrian crossing for everyone: residents, State Fair visitors, concertgoers, and Wolfpack and Canes fans alike,” said Spencer, who co-chairs the group’s transit and transportation committee. The bridge will officially open at 11:30 a.m. as part of a wider celebration organized by the alliance and the city. “West Raleigh Multimodal Day,” as the event is called, aims to highlight the various ways of moving to and through a part of the city that draws visitors from throughout the region.

AG looks into complaints that Triangle gas stations aren't sharing tax break

Gas stations in the Triangle are among those the state Department of Justice is looking into, following consumer complaints that the stations aren’t passing along the state tax break on fuel. The attorney general’s office had sent 42 letters of inquiry to gas stations that may not be passing along savings from the gas tax pause, as of Nov. 6 . One Durham County retailer has received a letter, along with gas stations in 29 other counties. The letter does not indicate that a gas station has violated the law. It only asks the station to explain its pricing practices. In addition, the Department of Justice has sent nine referrals to the Department of Agriculture, after receiving complaints about differences between advertised fuel prices and the actual price at the pump. ( Inspectors with the Department of Agriculture visit retailers across the state to ensure that advertised prices match prices that ring up at the register.) One referral was based on a complaint about a Wake County gas station. The other referrals concerned gas stations in six counties. Catch up on N.C.
