Another stretch of Gillis Hill Road in western Cumberland County will be widened and improved, following a $17.5 million contract awarded last week by the N.C. Department of Transportation.
The nearly mile-long segment is almost entirely in western Cumberland County, but part of the project will extend west of Celtic Drive and Stewarts Creek and into the Rockfish community of Hoke County.
As with the first segment awarded in 2022, this section of Gillis Hill Road will be widened from two to four lanes to improve safety and traffic flow. The project also includes the installation of raised medians, sidewalks, marked bicycle lanes and concrete curbs and gutters.
Fayetteville’s Highland Paving Co. can begin work this fall, and will have until the summer of 2028 to complete the project and fully open all lanes.
The first section, under construction between Raeford and Stoney Point roads, is scheduled to be completed by next spring.
