The South Nags Head beach renourishment project is heading towards completion, with construction now moving north on the last leg of the project, while work along Kitty Hawk is expected to resume by Thursday.
Work is currently underway near 8519 South Old Oregon Inlet Road and mile post 18, and heading towards the northern terminus of the project area at the Comfort Inn South, 8031 South Old Oregon Inlet Road, at Whalebone Junction.
Active construction is expected to be completed in the next several days, barring weather and/or equipment issues.
