Leland’s long-term project to resurface roadways within town limits began this week and is expected to continue for several months.
The project follows a 20-year life cycle to resurface up to 5% of the town’s roadways each year. About 5 miles of roads will be resurfaced this year, according to a town release.

Construction has begun on Grandiflora Drive near Kobus Court in Magnolia Greens and will progress toward Lanvale Road through Wyland Court, Stanfield Court, Greymoss Lane, Pine Harvest Drive, Parkmore Court, Alba Lane, Tommy Jacobs Drive, Sunburst Way, Carolina Avenue, Westport Drive, Eric Court, Potomac Court, and Avenbury Court.
Construction is expected from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday through the fall. Residents should expect some delays and asked to use caution when traveling through the construction zones.
The Leland Town Council earlier this year awarded a $1.76 million construction contract for the project, which includes milling, full-depth patching where needed, asphalt overlay, new pavement markings, and new street signs.
Survey and design plans are underway for the next round of road resurfacing scheduled to begin next year.
Additional information about Leland’s resurfacing program is available on the town’s website.
