St. Andrews Blvd. Traffic Work Starts Monday

Charleston County government has announced a traffic alert as part of the St Andrews Boulevard Bike Lanes & SC-61 Resurfacing Project in West Ashley. The purpose of this closure is to allow for the repair of curb and gutter and sidewalk along St Andrews Boulevard.

Monday, Sept. 26th to Saturday, October 1st - daytime, southbound shoulder closures:

Beginning at 7 a.m., motorists may experience minor traffic delays as crews close the shoulder of southbound St Andrews Boulevard between Wesley Drive and Old Town Road.

Monday, Sept. 26th to Saturday, October 1st - daytime, northbound shoulder closures:

Beginning at 9 a.m., motorists may experience minor traffic delays as crews close the shoulder of northbound St Andrews Boulevard between Wesley Drive and Old Town Road. 

Drivers traveling through the construction zones are asked to be aware of equipment and crews working in the area. The public is also asked to notice traffic control signs and message board information, and to note that all road work is dependent on the weather.

The goal of the project is to safely accommodate bicycle traffic on St. Andrews Boulevard and Ashley River Road as well as rehabilitate the pavement surface.

The project, which is expected to be completed by December 2011, is a coordinated effort by Charleston County, the city of Charleston and SCDOT. The project is being funded by multiple sources including the Charleston County Transportation Sales Tax, Charleston County Transportation Committee and an enhancement grant through the city of Charleston and SCDOT. The project is being managed by Charleston County Government’s RoadWise Program.
