‘Jinny’s Branch’ exists no more, at least in signage.
As of Aug. 9, signs at a bridge on N.C. 179 previously designating “Jinny’s Branch” have been replaced with new ones marking “Sauce Pan Creek.”
Katie Hite, traffic engineer for NCDOT Division 3, said her department was notified by Brunswick County that the official naming of that water feature had been revised.
“Therefore, we changed to be in accordance with that,” Hite said last week.
