HistoryNew Inlet first opened around 1738, separating Bodie Island from Hatteras Island. When a hurricane opened Oregon Inlet about 11 miles to the north in 1846, the land between New Inlet and Oregon Inlet became known as Pea Island. New Inlet now separated Hatteras Island from Pea Island. The opening of the wider Oregon Inlet meant less water flowed through New Inlet, and by 1922 the inlet had closed. In 1933, the inlet, or at least one nearby, briefly reopened after a strong hurricane,[3] but it closed only a few months later. Pea Island was a contiguous part of Hatteras Island until the passage of Hurricane Irene in August 2011. The storm temporarily re-opened New Inlet, once again separating Pea Island from Hatteras Island.[1] In 2017 the North Carolina Department of Transportation replaced a temporary road bridge on North Carolina Highway 12 spanning New Inlet with an "interim" bridge, so called due to ongoing efforts to resolve how to best route N.C. 12 through or around the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite news |last=Siceloff |first=Bruce |title=DOT Engineers Fret About More damage to N.C. 12 |url=http://www.bradenton.com/2011/08/29/3453623/dot-engineers-fret-about-more.html |accessdate=October 31, 2012 |newspaper=The Bradenton Herald |date=August 29, 2011 |quote=The new gaps are near the sites of ancient inlets that have opened and closed in the Outer Banks over the past four centuries: New Inlet, which closed in 1945,...}} {{Outer Banks inlets}}{{DareCountyNC-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite news |last1=Stradling |first1=Richard |title=New NC 12 bridge in Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge is open |url=https://www.newsobserver.com/news/traffic/article184586048.html |accessdate=September 18, 2018 |work=The News & Observer |date=November 14, 2017 |language=en |quote=Sand has since filled in the inlet}} 3. ^{{cite news |title=Livelihood of 700 Fisherman Hit by the Storm |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=RBBJAAAAIBAJ&sjid=zAINAAAAIBAJ&dq=pea%20island%20north%20carolina&pg=4314%2C6184457 |accessdate=October 31, 2012|newspaper=Meriden Daily Journal |date=September 13, 1933}} 3 : Bodies of water of Dare County, North Carolina|Outer Banks|Inlets of North Carolina |
