Pipe project prompts road closure
DAVIDSON COUNTY — Maintenance crews with the N.C. Department of Transportation were set to temporarily close Hege Road in northern Davidson County this week.
Beginning Monday morning, Hege Road was to be closed near the intersection with S. Union Grove Road for about two weeks to allow crews to replace a storm drain culvert beneath the roadway.
A detour will be in place to direct drivers around the closure using Hege Road, S. Union Grove Road and Hartman Road.
The road is expected to reopen by June 13. In the event of inclement weather, the alternate dates for the work are June 9-20.
