WAKE FOREST, NC – Park Construction of NC, a contractor working on the Wake Forest Water Main Replacement & Repair Project, will close the portion of South Avenue from South Wingate Street to the South Main Street/US 1A roundabout daily from 7 a.m.-5 p.m. through late July. The temporary road closure is necessary to allow crews to replace the water line to ensure adequate water supply. 

A signed detour is in place directing motorists around the work area. Delays are expected, so motorists may wish to avoid the area if possible and take an alternate route.
