The N.C. Department of Transportation will be performing federally-mandated inspections of both the Basnight Bridge on N.C. 12 and the Bonner Bridge Pier on Oregon Inlet beginning next week (March 3).
The work will require daytime lane closures for the bridge, while small sections of the pier, which is used for sightseeing and fishing, will be closed to the public while inspections are underway.
The inspections are a part of the Federal Highway Administration’s National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS), under which thorough inspections of bridge decks and support systems are required every two years.
