The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is asking for patience from the public as it works to repair and reopen several collapsed roadways in the state. The cause of the collapses is still under investigation, but heavy rain and flooding are suspected. NCDOT officials say that the repairs will take time and that they are working as quickly and safely as possible. The affected roads are causing significant traffic disruptions, and NCDOT is urging drivers to avoid the areas and use alternate routes if possible.
