YOUNGSVILLE
GATEWAYS Major thoroughfares and intersections present opportunities to create gateways that welcome residents and visitors into the community. Wake Forest has several locations where gateways could be constructed to improve aesthetics and present the Town in a positive light, such as the intersection of South Main Street and Capital Boulevard and key entry points into Downtown. Gateway features could include decorative archway signs, monument signs, public art, and/ or landscaping. Disinvested or unattractive buildings surrounding gateway points should be prioritized for improvement through redevelopment, rehabilitation, screening, and/or landscaping. Key Recommendations | Create a Gateway Plan to identify and prioritize sites for gateway features and establish design standards. Ensure the Plan works in synergy with the Town’s Wayfinding Plan. | Improve roadway infrastructure along key gateway routes to enhance their character and multimodal connectivity.
