CHOCOWINITY - A portion of Beaufort County’s Mouth of the Creek Road will close for a couple of weeks to allow crews to safely repair a bridge.
The road near Ephesus Church Road will be closed to traffic between Nov. 4 – 15. The N.C. Department of Transportation maintenance staff will repair parts of the bridge over Blounts Bay, including replacing decayed wooden caps.
Throughout the closure, drivers should follow the posted detour to Clay Bottom School Road, Core Point Road, and Maules Point Road.
Drivers should plan their commute as it may take longer than normal and travel with caution near the work zone.
