A winding drive on Interstate 40 through the Pigeon River Gorge will soon take a little longer than normal.
A contractor for the N.C. Department of Transportation will close one lane in each direction approaching Exit 7 starting Saturday with construction continuing into May.

Kiewit Infrastructure earned the project’s $19 million contract, which has a final complete date set for May 2024.

Well, at least it's not being done during the heavy traffic months.   No doubt will cause traffic issues.

If it’s completion is set for May 2024 that’s going to cover just about every driving season there can be.

Admittedly, I missed catching the year of completion.   The quote is from the linked article.

I didn't see 2024 at the end of the article.

I read this "A contractor for the N.C. Department of Transportation will close one lane in each direction approaching Exit 7 starting Saturday with construction continuing into May. "
