Monday March 7

Traffic impacts scheduled for today on US321 in Blowing Rock include flagging at various times from Norwood Circle to Food Lion Shopping Center for pavement marking in both northbound and southbound lanes, northbound and southbound lane closures at Possum Hollow Rd for grading operations, and construction equipment will be entering/exiting the highway from West Cornish St to Food Lion Shopping Center for paving operations.

321 Southbound traffic has now been shifted onto the new alignment from West Cornish St to US 321 Bus/S. Main St. This shift places northbound and southbound traffic in their respective outside lanes relative to the median. All traffic exiting businesses along this section of the project will now be required to turn right when entering US321. Traffic needing to turn left will be required to first turn right, then travel to the nearest crossover in order to make a U-Turn. This design feature will provide much safer traffic flow through the area. Drivers are encouraged to initially allow extra time while traveling to and through this area in order to become familiar with this new traffic pattern.
