Construction crews are actively working on the Lake Wheeler Road Improvement Project. There will be construction activity along sections of Lake Wheeler Road for two years. The good news is - detours are in place, and you can still get to Dix Park and the Farmer’s Market, and residents and businesses will have access to their properties.  

For your safety, and that of the crews working on this project, please follow detours and signage. We appreciate your patience as we work to make Lake Wheeler Road safer and more accessible for all users.
