KINSTON – A stretch of U.S. 258 in Lenoir County will be closed next week for a drainage project.
Maintenance workers for the state Transportation Department will replace a drainage pipe with a larger one on the highway about
4 miles south of Tyree Road.
The closure is scheduled to begin at 8:30 a.m. Monday and end at 5 p.m. Wednesday. The detour will consist of Clarence Potter and John Green Smith roads.
Drivers should be cautious near the worksite and allow for extra time using the detour.
