The City of Raleigh is working toward its Complete Streets strategy, which will accommodate all modes of transportation to navigate streets safely with potential changes coming to Lake Wheeler Road up next.

Plans are being finalized for the $20 million Lake Wheeler Road Improvement Project, spanning from South Saunders Street to Maywood Avenue — think behind Dorothea Dix Park going toward the State Farmers Market — which might include:

A peanut-shaped roundabout to slow and smooth traffic
Sidewalks + shared paths
Bike-only facilities
Raised intersections along side streets to keep pedestrians safe
Transit improvements to improve connectivity
A raised median to help slow traffic + prevent unsafe left turns
Stormwater facilities to mitigate runoff

Construction is slated to begin in 2025 — plus, there are nine more Complete Street projects underway for busy roads like Avent Ferry Road, Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, and Lake Boone Trail.
