More infrastructure money coming to SC!

SCDOT wants to widen the following interstate corridors:
1. I-95 between the GA/SC state line to the I-26 interchange and from the I-20 interchange to the SC/NC state line
2. I-26 between the I-385 interchange to Charleston
3. I-85 between Greenville and Spartanburg (start date pushed back to 2030) and from GA/SC state line to Anderson
4. I-77 from Rock Hill to Chester County
5. I-526 around Charleston (a $7 billion project)

As for I-73 in SC - needs more support from the local leaders around that corridor...

Article mentions that a few of these corridors are under construction already, I think.

Of what's listed above, they're only really working on I-26 SE of Columbia from Exit 125 to Exit 136 and NW of Charleston from Exit 187 to Exit 194, and they're wrapping up construction on I-26 NW of Columbia from Exit 85 to Exit 101.  And they're adding flyovers to the I-26/I-95 interchange, and there's the massive Carolina Crossroads project in Columbia, which will widen and rebuild interchanges on I-26, I-20, and I-126.

I drive GA state line to Anderson 4-5 times a month, don't ever see a backup.

The entire I-85 corridor between Atlanta and Durham definitely warrants 6 lanes throughout at minimum. Significant amount of truck traffic.

South Carolina also look for more funding: https://www.islandpacket.com/news/politics-government/article311775751.html
