MCB CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. -- Security upgrades to the Camp Johnson Gate will require a full closure beginning Dec. 5 at 6 p.m. through Jan. 20 at 6 p.m. To access Camp Johnson, personnel traveling on NC-24 should use the Wilson Gate entry. Once through the Wilson Gate, drivers should continue down Wilson Boulevard before turning right onto Bougainville Drive/Florence Road. Follow the road all the way to Camp Johnson.
Detour signs directing personnel to Camp Johnson will be in place during the closure.
Drivers accessing Camp Johnson during the closure are advised to exercise caution and slow down, especially when traveling on Bougainville Drive/Florence Road, which is a single lane road in both directions.
Commuters who regularly use the Wilson Gate weekday mornings should expect delays during the Camp Johnson Gate closure and plan accordingly.
The security upgrades at the Camp Johnson Gate are part of a larger Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Lejeune project requiring several gates to undergo closures over the next year. Additional gate locations and closures will be announced in advance of each project.
The latest updates and closure information will be posted to www.lejeune.marines.mil and shared on MCB Camp Lejeune's social media platforms.
