Pitt Street Bridge will be temporarily closed in order to conduct "exploratory digging."

The Town of Mount Pleasant announced a partial closure of the Pitt Street Bridge starting January 5, 2026, for exploratory digging to assess its original construction and support future repairs. Roughly 600 feet of the causeway will remain open, with the back half closed for about one week, barring unforeseen issues.​

Closure Details

Work focuses on understanding the bridge’s structure through digging, essential for planning maintenance. Officials urge public patience during this brief disruption.​

Additional Context

A separate micromobility project will fully close the bridge area from January 13, 2025, through spring 2025 for safety upgrades like new sidewalks, parking, and lighting. This exploratory phase precedes broader improvements.
