Wayne County Bridge Being Replaced

FREMONT – A 51-year-old bridge in Wayne County was closed this week, so crews can demolish it and replace it with a modern structure.

A contractor for the N.C. Department of Transportation has closed Davis Mill Road over the Aycock Swamp, which is halfway between Goldsboro and Wilson.

A signed detour is sending drivers onto Black Creek and Turner Swamp roads.

The road with the new bridge is expected to reopen in February 2027.
