MOUNT ULLA – N.C. Department of
Transportation contractors will begin work Monday replacing the Belk Road bridge between U.S. 801 and Cenetary Church Road near
Mount Ulla.
The existing bridge no longer meets the
needs of modern day traffic and requires replacement.
A portion of the road will close from 8 a.m. Monday, Feb. 19, until
work is complete in September; weather permitting.
Motorists will be able to detour around the closure utilizing
Centenary Church Road and N.C. 801 South in both directions.
This project is part of the department’s overall bridge program to
improve the condition of the state’s bridges and ensure the safety of drivers
who rely on them.
NCDOT reminds motorists to watch
signs for construction information, stay alert and obey the posted speed
limit.
