Three separate deliveries of construction equipment associated with the lifting of the Ocracoke Double Keepers’ Quarters are scheduled to occur the week of Dec. 9.

During the deliveries, Lighthouse Road—between approximately Loop Road and Martha Jane Lane—will be closed for up to 30 minutes. Loop Road will remain accessible for those looking for an alternate route during the closures.

The contractor, Terra Site Constructors LLC, plans to have staff to flag and control traffic whenever the large delivery trucks are blocking access along Lighthouse Road. Cape Hatteras National Seashore is in the process of notifying owners of homes adjacent to the temporary road closures.
