64 Lanes Closures

The N.C. Department of Transportation will close U.S. 64 at Winstead Avenue in Rocky Mount tonight. The closures are necessary for crews to work on the new Winstead Avenue bridge.
U.S. 64 West will be closed from 10 p.m. until 5 a.m. Thursday, May 16. Traffic will be detoured onto U.S. 64 Alternate to Sunset Avenue to Winstead Avenue, back to U.S. 64 West.
This work is part of a project to widen Winstead Avenue to four lanes with a median from south of Hunter Hill Road to U.S. 64, and to six lanes with a median from U.S. 64 to Sunset Avenue.

What NC DOT wants to do to Winstead Ave.

This project if approved would cause months of delays and traffic jams.
