Hwy 98 Detours affecting BBL
Posted on May 9th, 2024

I received a call from a neighbor late this evening (Wednesday) letting me know that cars were ending up down Blue Bird Lane due to a detour for road repair on west bound NC Highway 98.
 
I drove out and checked. The detour routes west bound 98 traffic onto Ligon Mill. The poor placement of a detour sign just before the entrance to Blue Bird Lane causes some cars to turn too soon and end up on Blue Bird Lane instead of Caveness Farms.
 
Two of our neighbors have alerted the Towne of Wake Forest police department. Tomorrow morning Board member Shelley Welch will contact leadership in the Towne of Wake Forest to see if better placed signage can be arranged to alleviate the problem.
 
In the meantime, we will have more traffic on Blue Bird than normal. Please take extra caution as you walk or drive in the neighborhood.
