We have some exciting changes coming to Lake Wheeler Road! One of the improvements we are proposing is a peanut roundabout at Mercury and Good Streets. This traffic slowing measure will allow a smooth traffic flow along the roadway. #CompleteStreets

It was a great honor to have National Park Service at one of our Raleigh Parks this week! Officials were in town to discuss investments in local park projects, which for us, means $8,679,930 in grant funding for the future Smoky Hollow Park! | #RaleighGov #RaleighParks
