Raleigh Water schedules Friday lane closure along South Main Street/US 1A

Thursday, June 5, 2025 - 3:44pm

Raleigh Water will reduce to one lane with intermittent two-way traffic a portion of South Main Street/US 1A between West Sycamore Avenue and Vernon Avenue Friday, June 6, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The temporary lane closure is necessary to allow crews to replace a galvanized water service along the 500 block of South Main.

Signage and flaggers will be in place managing traffic flow and safely directing motorists through the work area. Delays are expected, so drivers may wish to avoid the area and take an alternate route. For more information, email Raleigh Water’s Matt Askew at matthew.askew@raleighnc.gov.
