​DURHAM — N.C. Department of Transportation contractors are set to shift southbound Durham Freeway (N.C. 147) traffic to its final pattern this weekend.



Beginning at 7 a.m. Sunday, one lane at a time will be closed from Exit 10 (Briggs Avenue) to Exit 8 (Ellis Road) to allow crews to place new pavement markings and shift traffic off the paved shoulder to its final alignment. Work is scheduled to be completed by 6 p.m. Sunday.



The work is weather dependent and subject to change.



Drivers should pay extra attention and allow extra time to navigate the work zone.



​This work is associated with the East End Connector project which is estimated to be completed November 2020.
