NC 12 Outer Banks

[U2U2U2]

From what I see the road is open for 4 wheel drive vehicles as this time.

I would think repairs should be complete soon for all access via the roadway

and if needed a ferry ride would still work ?

sound right ?

Mary Lee seems to be getting to Hatteras just fine. Heads up the landlord is in town.

From what i've read, I believe it's open to regular vehicle traffic at this time.

Thanks, in my search I found quite a lot , the one that looked the most current was it was open to 4WD

I called this am and its open to all now.

Evans, come on man, keep your pet on a leash! Or at least put one of those buried electrical fences around your yard.

I've always known that they're out there... but that's pretty, uhh, concrete knowledge right there...

YOU sure its safe to come...??

Haha! It *does* seem like a pretty isolated stretch of road sometimes.... watch your back!

I drove from Nag's Head to Avon at around 10pm the other night. I passed one car just when I pulled onto 12 at Whalebone Junction, and then just one more car that was leaving Avon as I was arriving. That's two cars over about a 40 mile stretch of highway, including passing through the villages of Rodanthe, Waves, and Salvo!!!

Apparently everyone's bedtime is 9 pm during the winter.

Andy, I had the same experience driving back to NH from Hatteras one April. 2 cars between Albany NY and Brattleboro,Vt after 14 hours driving. But it was 3 am to be fair.
