Huge thanks to Faith Baptist Church for inviting us to be a part of the Cars and Faith event! 🏎️✨

We had a fantastic time chatting with our neighbors, connecting with the community, and checking out some seriously awesome cars.

We love getting out of the squad cars to spend quality time with the people we serve. Thank you for having us, and thanks to everyone who stopped by to say hello! 👋🚓

🚧 LANE CLOSURE ALERT: CAROLINIAN AVENUE AT KNIGHTDALE BOULEVARD 🚧

Atlas Stark will be closing a lane of traffic for an upcoming water line installation. The installation will take place between June 2nd and June 10th. This work will interrupt the westbound right turn lane of Carolinian Ave at the intersection of Carolinian Avenue and Knightdale Boulevard.

Traffic control will be onsite assisting with traffic direction. The lane will only be closed down between 9 am - 3 pm to avoid closures during rush hour. Overnight there will be road plates covering the work area to ensure community safety. We anticipate this being a quick two to three day event with an asphalt patch to finish up.

Drivers are urged to find alternate routes while this work is being done. We apologize for any inconvenience but appreciate your patience and cooperation.

The Knightdale Police Department would like to extend its sincere thanks to Valley Woods Mobile Estates for their contribution toward our Public Information Initiative.
Their donation specifically funded new safety pamphlets that provide residents with actionable advice on staying safe. Collaborative efforts between the private sector and law enforcement are vital to the well-being of our municipality.
We appreciate Valley Woods Mobile Estates for their continued investment in public safety.

Hey . Public Works will be working with a street marking contractor to perform remarking and safety improvements for the Roundabout on Flatrock Road behind the Lowes Foods (see attached map). This work is in conjunction with the Vision Zero program and addresses a few citizen concerns.

The work will take place during the day next week on Tuesday (June 2), Thursday (June 4) and Friday (June 5). We ask that drivers be cautious and obey all traffic control measures while this work is being completed.

Hey today we want to give a big thank you to the members of the Knightdale Fire Department and Knightdale Police Department who participated in the Special Olympics Law Enforcement Torch Run today!

This 40-year-old tradition raises public awareness and fundraising for the Special Olympics. Our Guardians received the torch, known as the "Flame of Hope," from the Wake County Sheriff's Office and ran approximately 3.9 miles down Knightdale Boulevard.

We're grateful for our public safety participants - THANK YOU for your time and dedication to this cause!

Today, we proudly joined our community in honoring the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country during the Memorial Day Ceremony. 🇺🇸

We are especially proud of veteran and Sergeant Rod Glahn for leading the Pledge of Allegiance today.

We will never forget. Thank you to all veterans, active-duty service members, and military families for your service and sacrifice.
