PSA: Karwood Drive Crosswalk Installation (August 8)

The Town of Paradise advises residents that construction of a new crosswalk on Karwood Drive is scheduled to begin on Monday, August 8. The project involves installation of a crosswalk, pedestrian island, signage, and rapid flashing beacons at the T’Railway entrances on Karwood Drive. It will take approximately four weeks and the work is planned to be completed by school opening. 

The work will occur daily from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday. Crews will work to minimize the impact on traffic; however, given the nature of this project, traffic interruptions and delays can be expected. Drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes if possible. The traffic lights at the intersection of Karwood Drive and Topsail Road will remain operational during the work. All drivers are asked to use caution in the area and to follow signage and traffic control procedures. The Town apologizes for any inconvenience caused by this work.
