A contractor out of New York has been selected to begin next month a five-month-long paving project at Oregon Inlet Marina.
Cape Hatteras National Seashore, which owns the marina, announced Wednesday that Yorkshire Industries was awarded the contract to remove the top layer of asphalt, regrade and apply a new layer of asphalt in the approximately 195,650 square foot parking lot.

The project is expected to be completed by March 31, 2025.
The resurfaced parking lot will be elevated to address flooding issues, and the parking lot striping and drainage system will also be repaired, according to seashore officials.
The road-based fueling station will be closed for about 45 days, starting Nov. 4. Access to the public kayak launch and to the Oregon Inlet Campground’s RV dump station will be closed starting Dec. 9 for about 60 days.
“Campers should make other arrangements during this time,” officials said.
Access to water-based marina charters, the future air station, the public boat ramps and Oregon Inlet Fishing Center’s replacement facility, restaurant and tackle shop, are not expected to be impacted by the paving project.
