Drivers should expect delays along Grandmark Street in the vicinity of the Rogers Road intersection on Friday, June 2, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Weather permitting, Civil Contractors, Inc., a private contractor working at the future site of the Duke Primary Care-Heritage, will close the northbound lane of Grandmark Street from Rogers Road extending 800-feet south. The temporary lane closure is necessary to allow crews to tap the water line.
The affected portion of Grandmark Street will be reduced to one lane with intermittent two-way traffic.
Signage and flaggers will be in place to safely direct traffic through the work area. Delays are expected, so motorists are urged to avoid the area if possible and take an alternate route.
For more information about this road project, contact Town Engineer Eric Keravuori at 919-435-9441 or ekeravuori@wakeforestnc.gov.

The Town of Wake Forest provides this information as a public service. Planned road closures and restrictions are necessary to allow for a variety of work. Motorists are encouraged to use the information to help plan their route and move safely through the work area. Weather and unforeseen circumstances occasionally prevent work from being completed as scheduled and make it unsafe to reopen lanes or streets when planned. When this occurs, town staff works with contractors to resolve the situation as quickly as possible and reduce impacts to the traveling public.
When traveling through a construction area, drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians are asked to be patient, proceed with caution, and obey flaggers at all times. Drivers should get in the correct lane well in advance and constantly be on the lookout for vehicles merging into adjacent travel lanes as they approach a work zone. Drivers are also urged to double their following distances.
