Frequently Asked Questions
Do you know which roads are open?
Unfortunately, we don't. Please see the NCDOT Website for Road Closures.
Is it safe to travel into the affected area?
Please be advised that western North Carolina is experiencing dangerous conditions due to recent disaster impacts. There are severe shortages of water, food, gas, power, and communications throughout the region.
We urge the public to limit travel to essential purposes only in and around the affected areas.
