<P> In 2006, when the Virginia General Assembly passed the resolution calling for an interstate compact to build a toll highway, North Carolina was asked to join in on the compact of putting tolls along the entire length of Interstate 95 in both states . Again, this was stopped by Governor Mike Easley, who did not see the benefit in such a compact and reiterated his opposition of tolls along Interstate 95 . </P> <P> In 2010, North Carolina leaders revived talks on tolling Interstate 95, submitting a request to the Federal Highway Administration to toll the entire route . Approval would be considered after an environmental assessment and other conditions . Support has grown in a number of factors including the fact that the interstate is mostly rural and used predominantly by out - of - state drivers . </P> <P> On January 20, 2012, NCDOT received final approval of the Environmental Assessment for improvements along I - 95 in North Carolina . The following recommendations were made: </P> <Dl> <Dd> <Ul> <Li> Widen I - 95 to eight lanes (four lanes in each direction) from exit 31 to exit 81; </Li> <Li> Widen the remaining sections of I - 95 to six lanes (three lanes in each direction); </Li> <Li> Make necessary repairs to pavement; </Li> <Li> Raise and rebuild bridges; </Li> <Li> Improve interchanges; and </Li> <Li> Bring I - 95 up to current safety standards for interstates . </Li> </Ul> </Dd> </Dl>
