Gov. Pat McCrory will attend a meeting about access to N.C. 12, the road that links Hatteras Island with the mainland.
Both McCrory and Transportation Secretary Tony Tata
plan to attend a meeting Monday in Manteo about the fragile highway,
which has been open intermittently on Hatteras Island over the past few
days because of ocean overwash.
Officials will discuss an environmental assessment
that identifies the preferred alternative as a permanent bridge where a
temporary bridge is now located on Hatteras. Tata and McCrory plan to
speak afterward. McCrory's office confirmed Monday that the governor
would attend the meeting.
DOT is considering options for an area near
Rodanthe, where overwash and standing sand can make the road impassable
during a storm. Both options involve a bridge.
