NC 902


North Carolina Highway 902 (NC 902) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of North Carolina. The highway connects southwest Chatham County with the county seat of Pittsboro.

NC 902 is a two-lane rural highway that traverses for 24.9 miles (40.1 km), from NC 22/NC 42, near Bennett, to US 64 Bus./NC 87, in Pittsboro.

Established in 1929 as a new primary routing, it initially ran from US 64/NC 90, in Asheboro, to NC 74 (now NC 24/NC 27), west of Carthage. In 1932, its eastern terminus was truncated at US 64 (now NC 22) in Coleridge; the old route to Carthage was renumbered as part of NC 64. In 1933, NC 902 was extended east, overlapping NC 64 to Bennett, then onto new routing to US 421/NC 60 (now Old US 421), in Bear Creek.

Between 1959-63, NC 902 was truncated, just south of Bennett, at NC 22/NC 42; the old alignment became part of NC 42. In 1964 or 1965, NC 902 was extended east to its current eastern terminus at US 64/NC 87, in Pittsboro. In 2000, NC 87 was rerouted onto the remaining .8 miles (1.3 km) of NC 902.

The entire route is in Chatham County.
