Currituck County has announced entry for Non-Resident Property Owners beginning on Thursday, April 23.

Per a Wednesday update from Dare County, those accessing Currituck County must respect Dare County’s Stay Home, Stay Healthy Order that is in effect. 

Travel in Dare County should be used only as necessary to reach the Currituck Outer Banks or for essential needs such as health care. Plan to travel directly to your destination once passing through the checkpoint at the bridge.

According to Currituck County, non-resident property owners will be allowed to go through the law enforcement checkpoint at the Wright Memorial Bridge and travel through Dare County to Corolla ONLY IF they have their hurricane season re-entry permit issued by Currituck Emergency Management. EACH VEHICLE MUST HAVE A PERMIT displayed to be allowed through the checkpoint. A tax bill or other documents will not be accepted.

If you cannot find your re-entry permit or have questions, contact Currituck Emergency Management via email at emstaff@currituckcountync.gov or call 252.232.2115.
