I-526 Long Point/Wando Port Interchange Improvements
Project ID: P041314
Construction Year: 2025
State: SC Counties: Charleston
Entity: South Carolina Department of Transportation
This section of I-526, known as the Lowcountry Corridor EAST, requires operational improvements at the Long Point Interchange. A recent planning study by SCDOT has identified the need to enhance this specific interchange (mile point 28), which handles a high volume of both commuter traffic and large trucks accessing the Wando Welch Port terminal.
The project will explore various improvement alternatives, including modifications to the existing Long Point Road Interchange or the potential construction of a new interchange. The goal is to improve traffic flow and safety in this critical transportation hub. Work for this project will include the acquisition of new right of way and a variety of easements imposed on adjacent landowners through the eminent domain process.
