Columbia, S.C. (July 18, 2024) — The South Carolina Department of Transportation seeks public comment on the action to amend the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program to include the preliminary engineering, right of way, and construction phases of work for a bridge replacement project in Berkeley County.SCDOT will receive public comment for a 21-day period from July 18, 2024 through August 8, 2024.
The proposed project in Berkeley County is to replace a 45-foot bridge on S-9 (Cypress Gardens Road) over Canterhill Swamp. The existing bridge is a three span structure. One span was previously repaired so that load posting could be removed. The remaining spans will soon have similar issues that will likely require reposting of this bridge. The total project cost is $9,400,000. The purpose of this bridge replacement project is to address structural deficiencies to meet current standards.
