Description
Description | A safety study was conducted to improve the dangerous intersection where Sewee and Fifteen Mile Landing roads meet U.S. Highway 17 near Awendaw. Options included restricted crossing U-turn intersections, adding a stoplight, and adding new warning signs. The stoplight option was ruled out due to low traffic volumes, and flashing yellow lights were considered obsolete. The recommended temporary fix is to add new signs in all directions to alert motorists, costing less than $200,000. The project aims to improve safety until a more permanent solution is agreed upon. |
