Traffic Signal Starts
Wednesday, May 6, 2026 · Topsail Beach, NC
Beginning May 6, drivers crossing the Surf City Bridge onto the island will stop at a temporary traffic signal before entering the roundabout. The pilot is meant to ease congestion for island traffic during the busy season. Temporary pedestrian barriers will also be in place near the roundabout, and the signal is expected to remain for at least two weeks while officials evaluate how well it works.
