North Carolina, NC — Over 400 roads remain closed across North Carolina, with all routes in the western region considered impassable. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) urged drivers to avoid traveling in these areas while crews work to clear debris and assess damage.
According to NCDOT, road conditions have worsened due to severe weather, including flash flooding and fallen debris. A map from the department shows widespread closures, primarily affecting western counties near the Tennessee border. Crews are working across the state to restore access, but they face significant challenges.
Drivers are urged to check road conditions before traveling and give crews space to work. “Please give them room as they work to clear roads and inspect bridges,” the NCDOT added in a statement.
