Ridge Road Closure Will Disrupt Traffic Through Jan. 8
December 2, 2024 | General
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.—A construction project has closed Ridge Road on the UNC campus from December 1 through Wednesday January 8, and the closure will disrupt traffic to home Tar Heel athletic events between now and the first week of January. Affected events will include this week's ACC/SEC Challenge home games for both the men's and women's basketball teams.
During this time, Ridge Road will be closed to through traffic between Stadium Drive and the Boshamer Stadium Parking Lot. Traffic will be detoured along Manning Drive and South Road/Raleigh Road.
Game day fans with RD permits for Carolina athletic events and patrons with an accessibility permit (ADA plate, placard or permit) for game day will be instructed to detour via Stadium Drive, but all others will need to use the official route.
Pedestrians should remain alert to construction activity and follow the designated pedestrian detour along the north side of Ridge Road when traveling through this area.
Chapel Hill Transit will implement detours on the CCX and RU routes. Buses will travel on Stadium Drive and will miss stops on Ridge Road and South Road. Visit Chapel Hill Transit for information on route detours and impacted stops.
