WAKE FOREST, NC – Weather permitting, the Town of Wake Forest will reduce to one lane with intermittent two-way traffic a portion of the 600 block of South Main Street/US 1A (between Vernon Avenue and East Holding Avenue) according to the following schedule:

  • Monday, April 20, 7:30 a.m.-3 p.m.
  • Tuesday, April 21, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
  • Friday, April 24, 7 a.m.-3 p.m.

The temporary lane closures are necessary to allow crews to replace the sidewalk.
