Traffic lights went down Monday evening (March 16, 2026) at Rivers Avenue and Northwoods Boulevard—right by Olive Garden and the former Wild Wings site. All three eastbound lanes on Northwoods Boulevard toward Ashley Phosphate Road were blocked but have since fully cleared and reopened.
Location Details
This busy intersection sees regular issues; past outages (like blown transformers nearby) have caused similar backups. No injuries or major causes reported here, unlike recent Rivers Avenue probes. Ties into local power woes, echoing SkyGarden’s outage from last week.
Current Status
Lanes are open as of the report—no ongoing delays noted today (March 17). Check Dominion Energy or NCPD apps for live cams if commuting that way. North Charleston’s infrastructure upgrades aim to cut such snags by early 2026. Drive safe! Any other local alerts you’re tracking?
