The process for changing a road name in С»ÆѼÊÓƵ County varies with the type of road and where it is located.
If the road is in a city or town's planning jurisdiction, contact the city or town's Planning Department for assistance. Contact us at GIS911addressing@wake.gov if the road is in the unincorporated area of С»ÆѼÊÓƵ County.
See the Public and Private Streets page to determine the location and whether the road is public or private.
Public Roads

Private Roads
Private road name changes require the agreement of the property owners. No public hearing is needed.
