South Main Street Closure To Last 3-4 months

A road closure begins tomorrow on a busy section of South Main Street in Davidson, and is expected to remain closed for three to four months, according to an NCDOT spokesperson. The closure is part of the construction on a new roundabout near the Davidson–Cornelius town line.

The NCDOT is building the roundabout to realign the intersection of NC 115 with Potts Street and improve traffic flow and safety in an area that has seen increasing congestion.

Officials said motorists can expect significant delays and major traffic impacts.

Traffic will be routed around the closure via Potts Street and Davidson’s Catawba Avenue, and signs will guide drivers along alternate routes, officials said. South Main Street will remain open to local traffic only — including residents, business owners, employees, deliveries and customers — but through traffic will be barred from the closed section.

An exact completion date was not available, but the town of Davidson previously said it will issue updates as it receives information from NCDOT.
