The N.C. Department of Transportation will temporarily close part of Stokes Ferry Road beginning Tuesday, July 17, to replace a pipe crossing under the road between Calvary Baptist Tabernacle Church and McCanless Golf Course in Salisbury.
The work will take place during daytime hours and is expected to be complete by July 20, weather permitting. Motorists can avoid the area by taking the following signed detour routes:
• Traveling East: Turn left on Earnhardt Road, turn right on Bringle Ferry Road, turn right on Dunns Mountain Road and return to Stokes Ferry Road; and
