Press Release
Charleston County's Public Works Department has launched an online public meeting (www.hwy41sc.com) regarding the Proposed Alternative for the Highway 41 Corridor Improvements project.
Due to the ongoing response to COVID-19 and for public safety, the information on this project will be presented in an on-demand virtual public meeting. The public can attend this meeting anytime, 24 hours a day, seven days a week through September 11, 2020.
Through the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review process, Alternative 1 has been identified as the proposed alternative to reduce congestion within the corridor and accommodate future traffic projections. Alternative 1 will widen Highway 41 to a four lane roadway from the Wando River Bridge to the intersection of Highway 41 and Highway 17. This alternative also includes an intersection design to improve traffic flow and safety at the intersection of Highway 41 and Highway 17 as well as the surrounding intersections at Hamlin Road, Brickyard Parkway, Gregorie Ferry Road, Winnowing Way, and Porchers Bluff Road.
Alternative 1 was identified as the proposed alternative due to greater improvements in traffic times, fewer impacts on wetlands and Laurel Hill County Park, less effects from noise, and the lowest overall project cost.
