Connecting Rhodhiss Halves

Bridge over the Catawba River that connects Town of Rhodhiss in Burke County to the south and Rhodhiss to the north.

BRTA is about connecting communities — and we have been in contact with NCDOT for two years about making the bridge that connects the two sides of Rhodhiss (Burke and Caldwell) safe for walkers and bikers. We are thrilled to announce that NCDOT has determined the bridge is wide enough to repaint the stripes to have a wider section for pedestrians. In addition, warning signs will be added.
