A detour plan will be used for White Road between Mt. Olive Church Lane and S.R. 108. This portion of White Road will be closed to thru traffic during construction. Mt Olive Church Lane will be used as the alternate route.
The project involves removing the White Road leg of the existing five-legged intersection to create a four-legged intersection with a better intersection angle.
