Jones County road scheduled to close for pipe replacement

TRENTON – A local road in Jones County will close for about two weeks while N.C. Department of Transportation crews replace a pipe.

A portion of McDaniel Road near N.C. 58 will close in both directions at 8 a.m. May 17. Crews will replace a failing pipe with a larger one. This project will improve water flow underneath the road and alleviate upstream flooding.

Work is scheduled to be finished by 5 p.m. May 28.

Drivers can access either side of McDaniel Road by using N.C. 58. Motorists are also advised to use caution around the construction.
