NC 12 Closed Mar 12 - Cape Hatteras Motel

Section Of NC 12 In Frisco Closed Mar 12, 2017

A heads up for anyone planning to be on Hatteras Island on Sunday, March 12:

NCDOT will be replacing culverts underneath a small section of roadway in Frisco that day, so Highway 12 will be closed in that area from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

There is an 8.3 mile detour route for 4×4 vehicles ONLY.

The southbound detour will begin at Ramp 44 off of Lighthouse Road at the Cape Hatteras Light Station in Buxton. The northbound detour will begin at Ramp 49 off Billy Mitchell Road in Frisco. The detour will be clearly marked from N.C. 12 and along the detour route in both directions. Motorists using the detour should follow the posted speed and directional signage.

Use of the detour route is at the driver’s own risk, and NCDOT is not responsible for towing stranded or stuck vehicles.
