Since the Clayton Bypass will soon be signed as I-42 with US-70 being put back on it's old alignment through Clayton, NCDOT is wanting to decommission NC-42 between NC-50 and the Clayton Bypass and resign it as NC-36 in order to avoid local confusion with I-42. The rest of NC-42 will remain, effectively creating a gap in it's overall length.
NCDOT awarded a contract to repave a 10-mile section of US-64 in Nash County between exits 453 & 463. Shoulder reconstruction is mentioned, but not specified if they will be widened to interstate standards.

The current US-70 Business designation through Clayton will be eliminated.
