North Carolina Highway 100 (NC 100) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of North Carolina. The route travels between Whitsett and Burlington, connecting the cities of Gibsonville and Elon.
NC 100 is an urban highway that begins at U.S. Route 70 (US 70) in Whitsett. Going northeast, it overlaps with NC 61 until Gibsonville, then goes east to into Elon. Connecting with University Drive, it goes north then east bypassing downtown Elon and Elon University. Near Glen Raven, NC 100 overlaps with NC 87 and goes through downtown Burlington, then splits from NC 87 at Anthony Street. At the turn south onto Maple Avenue, NC 100 goes through a mostly residential area for 1.1 miles (1.8 km), before ending at the intersection with NC 54/NC 49 (Chapel Hill Road/Harden Street).
At Burlington city limit, the North Carolina Railroad/Norfolk Southern tracks cross over the highway along a polygonal Warren truss, built in 1935.
