Overnight Closure Upcoming for N.C. 105 in Watauga County

BANNER ELK, NC (May 22, 2024) ⇒ A contractor for the N.C. Department of Transportation plans to close N.C. 105 between Broadstone Road and Old Shulls Mill Road Thursday evening.

Beginning at 7 p.m., crews from Wright Brothers Construction Company Inc. will stop traffic intermittently for no more than 15 minutes at a time to manually remove materials and rocks for slope stabilization.

Beginning at 9 p.m., the closures will extend to no more than 30 minutes at a time until the full reopening of the road the following morning at 6 a.m.

Similar operations have been successfully performed in previous weeks as contract crews work to replace the 69-year-old bridge over the Watauga River.

No blasting is associated with this temporary closure.

On-site flagging crews will be in the area directing motorists.

Drivers should expect delays and use caution when approaching the work zone.
