WAKE FOREST COMPREHENSIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN
PROJECTS, UPDATES, AND INITIATIVES FORWARD
Thank you for taking time to view the Wake Forest Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Offering a clear vision of the future of transportation in Wake Forest for the next 25 years, our plan is the result of an extensive public engagement process. Centered around safety, efficiency, flexibility, innovation and inclusion, it includes recommendations that focus on moving vehicles, while also incorporating significant pedestrian, bicycle, and transit opportunities. We want our residents and visitors to move within the Town and connect with the Triangle region as safely and efficiently as possible. I invite you to take time to explore the plan and the important information it contains. We are excited to offer the plan in a new, interactive format which we believe makes it easier to understand. As a result of this plan, it is our hope that our transportation system can contribute to preserving our character, fostering economic development, strengthening our neighborhoods, delivering superior services, and providing an exceptional quality of life for our residents.
