WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) – Multiple road closures were set in August so crews can work on replacing railroad ties.

CSX Transportation were set to start working in New Hanover County starting August 12 for a week at various intersections. However, the work has been postponed due to impacts from Tropical Storm Debby.

During the work, the roads will be completely closed at railroad crossings.

  • N 6th Street near 7th Street: August 12
  • Hilton Street near 7th Street: August 12
  • Henry Street south of Princess Place Drive: August 14
  • Colonial Drive near Confederate Drive: August 15
  • River to Sea Bikeway east of Dawson Street: August 15
  • Marstellar Street near S 13th Street: August 15
  • S 13th Street near Marstellar Street: August 15

Signage will mark detour routes during the closures.
