The purpose of this meeting is to provide information and solicit feedback from residents and stakeholders concerning the deterioration and proposed rehabilitation of these fourteen (14) bridges. Eight (8) Northbound bridges and six (6) Southbound bridges will be rehabilitated. Another purpose of this meeting is to gather information from the public or any interested organization on historic or cultural resources in the area. Personnel from SCDOT will be available to answer questions, receive feedback, and discuss the study with interested citizens on an individual basis.
