Original: NC-12 to reopen after storm batters OBX

Highway 12, the main route through North Carolina's Outer Banks, is set to reopen after a storm battered the barrier islands. The storm caused damage and closures along the vulnerable coastal road, which is frequently flooded by ocean overwash. Reopening restores access to communities and travelers in the OBX.

Why now: The storm and closure of the Outer Banks' main highway disrupted travel and access, making the reopening timely news.
