Construction update for Bridge Project on Highway 105

Anyone traveling on Highway 105 specifically between Banner Elk, Valle Crucis and Boone will know about the bridge expansion project between mile marker 6.2 and 6.8.

Construction is happening more and more during high traffic hours. Road closures can be expected intermittently from 11AM to 2PM on weekdays. The average wait time during operations can be anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes. Some operations for this project include blasting. Contractors are currently hauling material from the job site which should minimize traffic impacts until blasting resumes. We will inform you as more information becomes available.
