Detour routes: (map below)

Roundabout construction will require an 8-10 week road closure resulting in an off-site detour. 

  • There will be 3 off-site detours, two for cars and one for trucks.
  • Southern Auto Detour - (shown in blue on the detour map)  
    • The auto detour will use N.C. 200, Haigler Rd., Carriker Rd., E. Brief Rd., and N.C. 218. 
  • ​Northern Auto Detour - (Shown in purple on detour map)
    • ​The auto detour will use N.C. 200, Rock Hole Rd., Love Mill Rd., and N.C. 218
  • The truck detour will use U.S. 601, U.S. 74, and N.C. 200. 

To eliminate potential school bus delays, construction is planned during the summer months.

RESOURCES FOR PROPERTY OWNERS 

 

Although the N.C. Department of Transportation works to minimize the number of homes and businesses displaced by a road project, it is inevitable, in many cases, that a certain amount of private property is needed.
