Hampstead Bypass

Segment B - NC 210 to Sloop Point Loop Road

Visualization

A great visual walkthrough of the coming changes for the "Hampstead Bypass" showing the US 17. It is on YouTube so you will have commercials. Watch it now

At the 5m23s, the new intersection at Long Leaf Drive shows how our traffic flow changes.

Since our BPOA has a formal agreement registered with Pender County with the owners of the entrance and sign, we will let you know if there are further changes required.

We lost our wonderful magnolia trees at the entrance and plan to improve the entrance we are keeping up to date with the exact plans and will let you know what changes we need to make.

Timeline

The proposed timeline of this major project is moving up, which means improvements to a corridor in New Hanover and Pender counties are expected to come sooner than originally planned.

Segment B (NC 210 to Sloop Point Loop Road) started in the Summer of 2022.

Segment A (NC 140 to NC 210) was originally scheduled to begin in Fall of 2026 but in the latest draft plan it will start in the Summer of 2025.

When both sections are complete, the project is expected to improve safety and relieve congestion around the town of Hampstead.
