If you’re visiting Downtown Cary on Saturday and Sunday, be aware of the Downtown Urban Open Disc Golf Tournament taking place on Town Hall Campus. N. Academy Street will be closed from E. Cedar Street to Wilkinson Avenue on Saturday, November 27 and Sunday, November 28, from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. each day. Cars traveling north on Academy Street should take the East Cedar Street detour, and cars travelling south should take the Adams Street detour. Portions of Wilkinson Avenue and Ambassador Loop will also be closed to through traffic during this time; the Cary Police station will remain open and accessible via Wilkinson Avenue and Cary Street throughout the weekend.

Cooking for Thanksgiving? Don’t wash fats, oils, and grease (FOG) down the drain. If you have a half-gallon or more left over, help prevent clogged pipes by scraping excess oil into a plastic screw-cap container. Then, label it and request free pick-up via our online services portal or by calling 311. To learn more, visit townofcary.org/fog.
