1 What are the immediate next steps for the project?

Following the virtual meeting, the project team will collect, respond to and evaluate public comments, which are being accepted until September 11, 2020. The project team will then complete the draft environmental report and submit it along with the permit application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, who will review the documents and issue a public notice for the proposed project and hold a public comment period.

2 How will Charleston County work with impacted landowners?

We are committed to working with impacted landowners to enhance properties that are in close proximity of the proposed roadway. We realize each property is unique and we want to address each individually. The project team will contact directly impacted landowners to begin the right-of-way (ROW) process once the project’s ROW plans are approved. During this process, a ROW agent will work with a certified appraiser to determine a fair compensation amount based on appraised market value and impacts to the property.

3 Will noise walls be constructed?

The project team follows the SCDOT Noise Abatement Policy for determining potential locations for noise barriers. A detailed noise analysis was completed and noise walls were assessed for reasonability and feasibility. No noise walls were recommended for the corridor.

4 When will the project be constructed?

Currently, construction is anticipated to begin in 2023 and expected to be completed in 2026.

Until the project can be constructed, Charleston County and the Town of Mt. Pleasant have partnered to design and permit interim improvements in the corridor, which are expected to begin in fall 2020 and be completed in early 2021.
