NC 39
Route: Enters Wake County just south of Five County Stadium.
Leaves Wake County just south of interchange with US 64.
Major
Intersections: 		US 264 and NC 97 outside Zebulon.  That's all, folks.
History: Pretty much unchanged since about 1940.  There's not much that can be done to a road that's only 3 miles long.
Attractions: Five County Stadium at the 264/39 jct.  Home of the Carolina Mudcats!!!
Comments: Possibly the only numbered road in Wake County that doesn't go through an incorporated area. 39 and NC 96 pretty much parallel each other south of US 64, with 39 going to Selma (it ends at US 70) and 96 going through Selma to Smithfield and points south.

NC 231

Route: Enters Wake County just outside Wendell.
Ends at Business 64 in Wendell.
Shortest numbered route in Wake County.
Major
Intersections: 		None, unless you count the terminus at Business 64.
History: First sighted in the '40s.  Unchanged since then.
Attractions: Nothing real exciting.
Comments: There's not much on a 2-mile road that's worth commenting about.
