I-20 @ SAVANNAH RIVER & AUGUSTA CANAL; INC WIDENING

under construction

Replacement of existing Interstate 20 bridges over the Savannah River and the Augusta Canal. There are four existing bridges that provide two travel lanes in each direction without shoulders. The bridges are separated by an open median. The proposed replacement bridges will provide three travel lanes in each direction with shoulders on the inside and outside. All lanes and shoulders will be accomplished in one structure with a median barrier wall down the center. Existing Interstate 20 will be widened from 4 to 6 travel lanes from the Georgia welcome center to South Carolina end of the Savannah River Bridge. A transition back to 4 travel lanes will be constructed on the South Carolina side of the Savannah River Bridge.
