Project Updates
Construction on the Town of Leland’s Mallory Creek Drive Roadside Drainage Improvements project is currently underway, and the contractor will be moving to the south side of Mallory Creek Drive from Cove Landing to Hemlock Way starting Monday, April 29. The asphalt multi-use path (MUP) will be closed to all users during active construction and reopened in the evenings and weekends. Residents are asked to use the sidewalks along St. Kitts Way in the Cove Landing neighborhood when the MUP is closed. Residents should expect delays and use caution when driving in the area.
Construction continues on the northside of Mallory Creek Drive from Pine Cone Drive to Blue Spruce Drive. Construction is expected to take 2-3 weeks to complete the drainage improvements. Residents should expect delays and use caution when driving in the area.
