One of the CAMPO (Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization) local road projects approved for 2020 is to add an eastbound lane left turn lane on N.C. 98 at Camp Kanata Road and add a traffic signal. The requested funding is $1,097,600 with a 20 percent match from Wake County. It certainly is needed but it is the smallest part of the overall N.C. 98 plan, which has not been funded yet.

Betcha didn’t know there was a Monopoly game about Wake Forest – Wake Forest-opoly. It has local favorite locations like Lumpy’s Ice Cream, The Factory, The Wake Forest Historical Museum. You can find it at the Wake Forest Walmart for only $19.98. The Gazette is not endorsing this product, but found it interesting that there was this niche to fill.
