N.C. State University professor Dr. K.C. Busch and her team are seeking further dialogue with the Ocracoke community about NC Highway 12 and access issues and will seek further input from islanders on April 9 and 10.
The team was here in September to discuss their findings from the study they did on Ocracoke’s physical environment and how that might change and affect access.
Busch is part of the research team that last year presented findings on their simulations of what might happen to the island’s landscape under different road management scenarios.
Busch would like to speak with residents again and will be in the Ocracoke Community Center for two meetings.
Those are scheduled from 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday, April 9, and from 10 a.m. to noon on Friday, April 10.
Dr. Laura Moore has put together two videos about the results of the model simulations. Here is the link for those videos: https://cecl.online/research-projects/
She would like those interested to RSVP to the email in the flyer below.
