CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. -- Due to significantly low traffic volume, Camp Lejeune’s Triangle Outpost (TOP) Gate will only be open on weekdays from 5:30 to 8 a.m. and 3:30 to 6 p.m. beginning March 12. The TOP Gate, located along NC-172 near Lyman Road on MCB Camp Lejeune and Bear Creek Road in Hubert, will be closed on weekends and holiday liberty periods.
This reduction in hours will also enable the base to reallocate security personnel to support other security and law enforcement requirements.
Personnel who typically use the TOP Gate during off-peak hours are advised to use the Piney Green Gate (limited to weekdays only) or Holcomb Gate (open 24/7).
Commuters who routinely use NC-172 to bypass NC-24/NC-17 when traveling between Hubert and Sneads Ferry during off-peak hours are advised to use the Piney Green or Holcomb Gates to make the connection to NC-172 via Sneads Ferry Road.
PLEASE NOTE-- Wilson, Holcomb and Sneads Ferry Gates remain open 24/7. Piney Green Gate hours remain Monday through Friday: 5:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for inbound traffic and 5:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. for outbound traffic. The Piney Green Gate is closed on weekends and holiday liberty periods.
Installation leaders will work with the North Carolina Department of Transportation and the City of Jacksonville to monitor the timing of traffic lights along NC-24 to account for increased traffic between NC-172 and the Camp Lejeune Main Gate exit during peak hours.
