A temporary road closure is scheduled for a short section of James Hamilton Road at the intersection of Rocky River Road as part of ongoing utility infrastructure work.
Beginning Wednesday, January 14, a contractor working with the North Carolina Department of Transportation will close the roadway at the intersection to install a water line across James Hamilton Road. The closure is expected to last no more than three days.
During the closure, traffic will be detoured to Fowler Secrest Road. Access to Dollar General will remain available from the Fowler Secrest Road side.
Motorists are encouraged to follow posted detour signs and allow extra travel time while work is underway. The City of Monroe appreciates the public’s patience as this necessary infrastructure improvement is completed.
Update: Graphic was updated to indicate that James Hamilton Road is closed to thru-traffic instead of all traffic.
