Drain Pipe Replacement Will Cause Detour Monday

Replacement of a drainage pipe in Ash will cause a number of detours into Columbus County starting Monday.

The section of Pireway Road NW will close  to allow N.C. Department of Transportation employees to safely replace a pipe.

The road is scheduled to close between Nov. 27 and Dec. 8.

Earlier this month, the roadway near Ash-Little Road NW was closed for crews to replace multiple pipes.

Similar to the previous closure, traffic will be detoured onto Swamp Fox Highway (Columbus County), N.C. 905 (Seven Creeks Highway), N.C. 130 (New Britton Highway), Whiteville Road, U.S. 17 (Ocean Highway), Longwood Road NW (N.C. 904).

Drivers should plan for a longer commute using the detour and use caution if traveling near the work site.
