U.S. Route 117 Traffic Accidents, Road Closures & Incidents

Bridge repairs . The left lane will be closed

There will be a road closure beginning on May 2nd, 2022 at 7 AM and lasting until 7 AM on July 7th, 2023 for Bridge #47 on US-117 to be replaced.  The bridge replacement construction will have a detour associated with the road closure sending vehicles down US-117 to Frank Price Church Rd.  Next, vehicles will need to travel from Frank Price Church Rd East to Old Black Creek Rd.  From Old Black Creek Rd vehicles will travel North on Old Black Creek Rd to enter onto US HWY 264.  HWY 264 can be taken West to then enter onto US HWY 301 to then be reintroduced to US HWY-117.

NCDOT will be doing contract bridge sweeping on various bridges throughout New Hanover, Brunswick, Sampson, Pender, Onslow and Duplin Counties.  This will be a moving operation. 

Construction work to improve traffic flow after the project is finished.
