WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH, N.C. (WECT) - The N.C. Department of Transportation announced Aug. 22 that preservation work will resume on the South Banks Channel Bridge.
Per the announcement, crews will resume working on Aug. 24 from 7 p.m. - 5 a.m.
NCDOT stated that the work is weather dependent. If crews are unable to complete the project this week, the bridge will be closed during the same time beginning Aug. 31.
“When it reopens, there will be two lanes for traffic going toward the beach and one lane for traffic leaving it,” the NCDOT said in a news release. “This change will allow a preservation project that began last year to continue.”
