SCDOT to hold a drop-in public information meeting in Beaufort County

Intersection improvements proposed at Laurel Bay Road, Stanley Farm Road

Staff reports

The S.C. Department of Transportation (SCDOT) will hold a drop-in public information meeting on Thursday, Aug. 1, regarding a proposed intersection improvement project in Beaufort County.

The meeting will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., at Burton Wells County Park located at 1 Middleton Recreation Drive in Beaufort. SCDOT representatives will be available at the meeting to discuss the proposed project with members of the community. This is a drop-in style meeting and there will be no formal presentation.

SCDOT proposes to convert the intersection at S.C. 116 (Laurel Bay Road) and S-597 (Stanley Farm Road) into a single lane roundabout in order to reduce the number of severe crashes and improve safety. This intersection was identified through the Highway Safety Improvement Program using a data driven approach to identify potential safety enhancements through infrastructure improvements.
