As construction of the Palmetto Commerce Interchange project progresses, limited intermittent nighttime lane closures along I-26 between US-78 and Ashley Phosphate will be in effect Monday, August 26th through Thursday, August 29th, 2024. This phase of the project’s I-26 traffic plan is designed to shift vehicles away from the median to allow crews to construct the interchange bridge.
Below is a full breakdown of the scheduled lane closures.
Week of August 26, 2024:
- Work will occur Monday night (8/26) through Thursday night (8/29).
- Starting Monday night, between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m., crews conduct intermittent traffic closures in the eastbound travel lanes to move the bridge construction crane and other equipment into the median.
- Wednesday (8/28) and Thursday (8/29) nights between 6 p.m. and 5 a.m., eastbound single lane closures will be required to deliver materials onto the work site.
As always, motorists are asked to use caution when traveling through the work area and comply with traffic control signs, reduced speed limits, and message board information.
The Palmetto Commerce Interchange project is designed to reduce congestion at surrounding intersections, offer additional travel routes, provide access to existing and planned developments, and improve overall mobility throughout the area.
