Finding Your WayNavigating the Outer Banks is simple. Major north-south roads (Route 158 or the bypass and Route 12 - the beach road), are marked by mile markers (Milepost), normally placed at half-mile increments on green signs along the side of the road. Directions to most locations on the Outer Banks are given in relation to the nearest "milepost" or "MP." The mile marker system begins at MP1 at the Wright Memorial Bridge coming on to the Outer Banks, and extends the length of the island chain ending in Hatteras Island. |
