Maybank Highway was widened for approximately one mile to continue the lane from the Stono River Bridge to the existing right-turn lane at the intersection of River Road. It included adding a multi-use path and sidewalks for bicycles and pedestrians, closed and open ditch drainage, curb and gutter, and traffic signal improvements at River Road. Challenges included preserving the tree canopy and ensuring minimal disturbance to the surrounding wetlands, as well as maintaining traffic flow of this heavily traveled road during construction. ICE provided project management, design changes management, CE&I, and surveying services.
This project was recognized by ACEC-SC for Engineering Excellence in the Special Projects category for Construction Management.
