Traffic around much of the Triangle returned to normal Tuesday as floodwaters receded and roads reopened.

Chatham, Orange and Durham officials reported that a few roads in each county remained impassable, either because of flooding or damage to the roadway or bridges.

While most of the damage could be resolved over the next week, some areas will remain closed a month or more until repairs can be made, N.C. Department of Transportation officials said.
