At the very tip of the "Goat Head" the water will back up fast. It will keep backing up, up the peninsula, up toward Kings Highway. It will probably cover the homes in this area completely. Most of Eden will be flooded in the streets, the closer you are to the rivers the higher and more forceful the water will be.
Just as 311 was moved in Madison, to make more Dan River crossings, 311 was extended beyond Leaksville to make more Dan River Crossings. Only 770 went through Leaksville and Draper at the time. I have several 40's, 50's, 60,s NC highway maps.
