Attention Simpsonville Residents: Upcoming Public Meeting on Enoree River Bridge Repairs Scheduled for September 24

Attention Simpsonville Residents: Bridge Repairs on the Horizon!

Hey there, Simpsonville folks! If you’ve been driving around the area, you may have noticed some chatter lately about the bridge over the Enoree River along state Highway 146. Well, we have some important news to share with you that could affect your daily commute.

Public Meeting Scheduled

Mark your calendars for September 24! The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) is hosting a public information drop-in meeting from 5 to 7 p.m. This event will be held at the Five Forks Baptist Church, located at 112 Batesville Road, right here in Simpsonville. It’s a great opportunity for everyone to come together, ask questions, and get some clarity on the upcoming repairs to the bridge that has been load-restricted for safety reasons.

What’s Happening with the Bridge?

It’s no secret that bridge repairs can sometimes feel like a heavy topic to discuss. However, at this meeting, SCDOT representatives will be on-hand to explain the details related to the bridge repairs. They are eager to answer any questions and help residents understand how the repairs will affect traffic and safety in our area.

If you’re wondering what “load-restricted” really means, it simply indicates that the weight limit on the bridge is lower than what’s typically allowed. This restriction is important to note as it ensures that the bridge can safely accommodate vehicle traffic while maintenance is underway.

Why Attend?

This is not just a chance to get info; it’s also a chance to voice any concerns you might have about the repairs and to get firsthand knowledge about the timeline and expected completion of the project. After all, it’s your community, and your input matters! Whether you’re a frequent driver on Highway 146 or just curious about local infrastructure, you will definitely want to stop by!

A Friendly Reminder

Don’t forget, the meeting is from 5 to 7 p.m. so there’s plenty of time to swing by before dinner. Make it a fun evening out! Grab a friend or neighbor to join you. The more, the merrier!

Stay Updated

If you’re not able to make it to the meeting, don’t fret! You can still keep yourself informed by visiting the project website at scdotgis.online/D3-P4. This site contains valuable resources and updates about the bridge repairs that can help you stay in the know.

Conclusion

In summary, the upcoming public meeting is an excellent opportunity for Simpsonville residents to engage with SCDOT and learn more about the critical work being done on the Enoree River bridge. Don’t miss the chance to ask your questions, express your thoughts, and stay informed about changes that affect our community. We’re all in this together, and staying connected makes our city even stronger!

We hope to see you there on September 24! Safe travels, everyone!
