Description

James Island City Council is working with the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) to make Folly Road safer by implementing raised medians as part of the safety improvement plan. However, there is community opposition due to concerns about business impact and traffic diversion into neighborhoods without sidewalks. The city council has passed a resolution requesting SCDOT to remove the medians from the plan. Construction is scheduled to begin next year, but no timeline is set for SCDOT's decision on the city's request.
