Santee Cooper has announced temporary lane closures on Johns Island as part of a transmission upgrade project. The closures will take place near 950 Brownswood Rd, between Old Pond Road and Fickling Hill Road, starting this week.
Details of the Lane Closures
Crews will be working in the roadway from July 21 to August 2, with work scheduled between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. each day. The construction is aimed at upgrading the transmission infrastructure, which will ultimately benefit Johns Island residents by improving the power grid.
Traffic Impact and Advisory
Santee Cooper has assured the public that traffic delays will be brief, and efforts will be made to minimize disruptions. However, motorists are still advised to use caution and reduce speed when traveling through the area.
To avoid potential delays, drivers are encouraged to consider alternate routes if possible. Construction zones can be unpredictable, so extra caution is recommended for those driving near the project site.
With temporary lane closures and minor traffic disruptions expected, motorists should plan accordingly. The project is an important step toward improving the transmission system for Johns Island residents, and Santee Cooper aims to complete the work as quickly and efficiently as possible.
