North Carolina Highway 146 (NC 146) is a short east/west
Asheville. It is named Long Shoals Road for its entire length.[3]
Route description
NC 146 begins its western end at
U.S. 74 at exit 37. Passing exit 37, NC 146 enters the Asheville city limits and passes north of Lake Julian and Julian Lake Park before nearing its eastern end. At 3.51 miles (5.65 km), NC 146 reaches its eastern end at U.S. Route 25 in Skyland (but still within the Asheville city limits).[2]
History
The current routing of NC 146 was designated around 1991 as a renumbering of
NC 191 to head directly east to U.S. Route 25. As a result, the former routing of NC 280 from NC 191 to Skyland became NC 146.[4]
Major Intersections
The entire route is in Buncombe County.
