The late Congressman Howard Coble will be remembered with a section of Interstate 85 named in his honor.
The Guilford County Board of Commissioners petitioned the North Carolina Department of Transportation to name a span from I-40 east of Greensboro to Alamance Church Road after Coble who served in Congress from 1985 to until 2015.
“Congressman J. Howard Coble, a lifelong resident of Guilford County proudly served for thirty years representing the Sixth Congressional District and became one of the most well-known and beloved citizens of North Carolina,” NCDOT wrote in a news release announcing the naming.
