On Wednesday, the NC Department of Transportation modified the intersection of Highway 96 North and Little Devine Road near Selma, to a permanent four-way stop.
The intersection had required vehicles to stop on Little Devine Road, while traffic on Highway could continue through a flashing yellow caution light.
The conversion was made as a result of a DOT investigation that determined traffic volumes at the intersection and other factors warranted installing the additional stop signs on Highway 96.
