SCDOT's Public Notification of the Proposed 2020-21 Pavement Improvement Program
Thursday, June 25th, 2020
The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) is providing public notification of the Commission approved 21-day public comment period. The public has the opportunity to comment on an action to approve the Recommended 2020-21 Pavement Improvement Program and the recommended ranked pavement improvement project lists for the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction of the Primary System, Farm to Market Secondary, and Neighborhood Streets for the state fiscal year 2020-2021.
The projects recommended for the Proposed 2020-2021 Pavement Improvement Program were selected utilizing ranking processes that are based on objective and quantifiable factors; comply with the Ten-Year Plan for rebuilding South Carolina’s roads; support the performance targets established in the Commission approved Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP); and utilize a county by county distribution of paving funds in order to ensure that every county of the state is guaranteed paving funds.
The projects included on the 2020-21 Pavement Improvement Program list will account for 661 miles of proposed paving work. The funding allocation necessary to complete this work is estimated at $412,000,000.00.
Upon completion of the 21 day public comment period any substantive comments will be provided to the Commission. Barring any substantive comments, the projects are to be incorporated in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).
