NC 12 closes again in Outer Banks near Rodanthe due to 'overwash'
According to the NCDOT, the gap between Rodanthe and the Marc Basnight Bridge was closed to drivers just before 2:30 p.m. Tuesday. This comes after high tides and mass flooding from a Nor’easter that targeted the North Carolina coast over the weekend.
The Ocracoke Island section of N.C. 12 is still closed between the northern Ferry Terminal and the National Park Service Pony Pens, also due to ocean overwash.
NCDOT officials asked locals and travelers in the area to “be patient as NCDOT crews are working to repair the dune,” so the road can be reopened safely and as soon as possible.
Several sections of N.C. 12 were closed due to flooding over the weekend, including some areas to the south in Carteret County at Cedar Island.
To stay up to date with when this section of N.C. 12 reopens, you can check the NCDOT NC 12 Facebook page or view the real-time map on DriveNC.gov.
